Co-Parenting Agreements

A co-parenting agreement is a written plan that helps separated or divorced parents work together to care for their child. It outlines important details like custody arrangements, visitation schedules, decision-making responsibilities, and financial support. The goal is to promote consistency, minimize conflicts, and prioritize the child's well-being. Having a clear agreement helps both parents understand their roles and responsibilities, providing stability and reducing misunderstandings. While it can be informal, it’s often a legal document that can be used in court if needed. Ultimately, it fosters cooperative parenting and a positive environment for the child.
