Ne-Yo and Monyetta Shaw have found a good space to co-parent their two children. Now, they want to help other parents do the same. More inside...
Remaining positive after going through a high-profile breakup has its difficulties, however, Monyetta Shaw is committed to operating in a space of integrity and leadership at all times. It's been a long time coming, and there was plenty of drama between Monyetta and Ne-Yo once he and now wife Crystal got together, but here we are.
We told you Monyetta was gearing up to release a new book where she offers up co-parenting tips to parents struggling to make it work. And now it's about to be released.
After the success of her first two books - "The Adventures of Maddie" & "Bigger Than Me" - Monyetta will be releasing "Keep It Classy," a how-to-guide for moms and dads, where she shares first-hand encounters and strategies she's learned through co-parenting with her ex-Ne-Yo.
"For me, it's quite simple," says Monyetta. "My kids come first and it's extremely vital for me to set a positive example."
The R&B crooner - who shares two children with Monyetta (Madilyn& Mason) - collaborated with his ex, providing the foreword in the book.
"The purpose of this book is far more important than just being an artist or an author. What's most important is protecting the hearts and minds of innocent children, ours, and yours." says Ne-Yo. "This book is about preventing kids from being on the receiving end of issues and circumstances that we grownups create for ourselves. It's about a state of mind, helping parents remove the harmful attitudes and behavior that threaten them and their children's wellbeing."
Back in July, Monyetta shared an exerpt from her new book while on a family outing with Ne-Yo, his new wife Crystal Smith, and their kids, writing:
#NeYo, his ex #MonyettaShaw and wife #CrystalSmith took all the kids to #KidzBop in Atlanta. And Monyetta says she’s writing the book - literally - on keeping it classy. https://t.co/iL3pnPsuhZpic.twitter.com/JX1OEdyfUM

Looks like they're following the Swizz Beatz/Alicia Keys/Mashonda blueprint. And we're not mad at it.
