Parenting Arrangements

Parenting arrangements refer to the agreement or court order outlining how parents share responsibilities and time with their children after separation or divorce. They specify where the child will live, when they will spend time with each parent, and how decisions about their upbringing—like education, health, and religion—are made. The goal is to ensure the child's best interests by creating a plan that promotes stable, healthy relationships with both parents. These arrangements can be flexible or formal, and are often reviewed over time to accommodate the child's changing needs.
