Nick Cannon has a lot of thoughts about parenting. The father of 12 kids with six different women has shared his thoughts regarding the term “co-parenting,” which refers to two parents who raise their kids together despite not maintaining a romantic relationship, revealing that he doesn’t like to use that word.
Cannon shared his thoughts on an episode of his podcast, “Nick Cannon @ Night,” which features a segment where fans and listeners can send in questions. One of these was “Nick’s perspective on managing multiple co-parenting relationships while dating.”
“It’s a unique situation that could offer some real insights for blended families,” concluded the question, which was shared on X.
Cannon revealed that he had “an issue” with the term “co-parenting,” preferring to use the term “parenting.”

He then addressed the listener’s question directly, revealing how he manages his relationship with his kids and their mothers. “I haven’t figured it out yet. I haven’t gotten it all the way right. But also to your point, if I just step into every situation with respect and compassion, and individuality. That’s the other thing I always do with anyone I’m involved with in my life,” he said.
Cannon says that he tries not to group the kids’ mothers and treats them all as individuals. “I don’t bunch them together. I really try my hardest not to be like, ‘Oh yeah, my baby mamas’, you know, unless I’m telling a joke or something like that, but no one wants to be grouped into anything.”

In March of this year, Cannon revealed that he was happy with the number of children he had, even though he might continue to have more in the future. “I’m being honest. I’m having so much fun in this space right now, and the way my bank account is set up, I’m going to press hold on this 12 for right now,” he said to PEOPLE.
“But, I was just speaking of three years from now, five years from now, who knows? I’m not against it.”
