Timesharing / Parent Responsibility
What is Timesharing?
Parental Responsibility
The court-approved parenting plan will also designate whether the parental responsibility will be:
- Shared parental responsibility — the parents must confer and make significant decisions jointly regarding the child’s upbringing, including medical care, education, social and recreational, and religious faith.
- Ultimate Decision Making Authority – after full consultation with the other parent, one parent has the legal right to make final decisions about certain specified issues (e.g., medical, educational, religious upbringing, general welfare).

How Does The Court Determine Custody?
Child Custody is divided into two main categories:
- Timesharing (physical time child spends with each parent), and
- Parental Responsibility (significant decisions to be made for child relating to medical care, school matters, social and recreational, religious faith)
- The age of the child
- The wishes of the child if the child is of sufficient age and maturity
- Which parent may provide better basic primary care
- Parent’s health, including mental health
- Any criminal record, including domestic violence
- Substance abuse by either parent
- Parent’s financial status
- Parent’s employment stability and work schedule
- Each parent’s home environment that will be available for the child
- A potential better home environment with stepparents, grandparents, or other family members
Our compassionate child custody attorneys understand that best agreement usually allows both mother and father to maintain a consistent relationship with the child, where appropriate. An experienced child custody attorney needs to draft a comprehensive agreement so that you do not have to return to court in the future to modify the agreement.
