I don't see any difference in the rights granted to the third parent in the scenario below and the rights that would be granted to a step-parent in a straight, non-polygamized divorce scenario. In long-standing marriages, any step-parent has the right to seek custody should the biological parent die; we already have scenarios and have had for years where a child may have three parents. Protecting the rights between parents and children is very different from allowing marriages between three or more individuals. Seriously, didn't you read this article with any sort of critical eye before posting it, or were you aware of all the logical flaws and you were just hoping to stir up debate?
