A well-drafted & designed custody plan can provide protection for children and flexibility for parents. Parents may love to spend as much time with the children as possible. Perhaps even share time equally with the children, but the need for a strong, stable environment should be of greatest concern. 

In all visitation or custody schedules, flexibility should be a crucial aspect. For both parents, there will be “special events” throughout the year that they want to attend with the kids. Parents must also agree that irrespective of the regularly scheduled visitation, the children attend “special events.”

Your children will now be sharing two different households with two distinct parenting styles and household rules. It is ideal if the parents maintain, as much as possible, similar rules for the children. In reality, though, there will be glaring differences between the two households. This will take a considerable adjustment on the children’s part. 

Whatever your circumstances, if the children are your primary concern, then it is possible to work out an amicable relationship with the other parent. Always keep in mind your children’s best interests. Be flexible and considerate of each other. At least communicate on matters concerning the children. 

Be prepared for the weekly schedule and develop a routine for yourself and your children. It is always the parents’ responsibility to help build a meaningful, loving, and healthy relationship with each parent. Your children will benefit immensely when both parents maintain a working relationship as it concerns the children.
