Parenting Plans

A parenting plan is required in all cases involving time-sharing with minor child(ren), even when time-sharing is not in dispute.

Parenting Plan Essentials

• How the parties will share and be responsible for the daily tasks associated with the upbringing of the child(ren).
• The time-sharing schedule arrangements that specify the time that the minor child(ren) will spend with each parent.
• A designation of who will be responsible for any and all forms of health care, school-related matters, including the address to be used for school-boundary determination and registration, other activities.
• The methods and technologies that the parents will use to communicate with the child(ren).
• The best interests of the child(ren) must be the primary consideration in the Parenting Plan.
