What does it take to make someone a parent in the eyes of the law? And can a child have more than two designated legal parents?
As families become more complex, those are questions courts in Washington and elsewhere are wrestling with.

The court determined that, after the couple split up, the non biological mother could have full parental rights as a “de facto parent.”
