A whole lot more co-operation and less traumatized children.
Except, I don't share the same values as my neighbors, and either I would be upsetting the neighbor by how I'm 'parenting' their kids, or they will be upsetting me with how they 'parent' mine.
I was thinking more along the lines of what those children would grow up with. They would end up becoming adults who understood trust and cooperation at a whole other level.
I think the point of co-operative/collaborative parenting would be for the group to agree on how to raise the children. You collectively raise the children, not each adult implementing their own rules/methods. When you have differing opinions, you would most likely compromise and come to a common ground. The whole point of working together is to operate as a group to reduce the workload and not work in isolation.

what in god greens earth is that?
Much more confusion but also much less child abuse considering there are more filters for abuse-causing factors to have to go through.
I know a lot of victims of such calamity. "Oh don't worry I'll take care of it" says a single parent or pair of parents before going full good-for-nothing on them.
One can say what they want about sovereignty over their kin, but people are responsible for collateral damages too. As it stands, I wouldn't dare become a mom.
It would look like a lot of free baby sitting. Where do I sign up?
Better than it is now
Like most questions that devolve to, "What would the world be like if people stopped doing bad things and just ?" pretty great. (The wish in this case is help each other with raising children.) Now if only we could get people to stop doing bad things.
Given that many of us who are american went to the public indoctination centers... I mean schools where we were "raised" by people in our "village", I think it would look basically the same as it like it does now.
Unless you are talking about a world devoid of the educational industrial complex.
