Parenting time refers to what you may think of as physical custody and visitation. Upon divorce, your children will no longer live with both of you together but will need to divide their time between you and their other parent, and this is referred to as parenting time.
It must be noted that agreeing on terms related to parenting time can be one of the most difficult components of any divorce involving children. If you are facing a parenting time concern, reach out to an experienced Ohio parenting time attorney today.
There are a variety of reasons why parents might need to address parenting time with the court.
If you and your children’s other parent are splitting up, your parenting time terms can look however you want them to look – as long as you are both willing to sign off on them. As such, you can get as creative with your scheduling as you need to. After all, you are a unique family with unique scheduling needs – and no one knows better than the two of you what these needs are. The fact is, however, that divorce is a complicated legal matter and a complicated emotional transition that can make negotiating between yourselves difficult (at best).
When it comes to moving the negotiation process forward regarding your parenting time schedules, you are not alone. In fact, all of the following options are available to you:
However you manage to get there, keeping the negotiations between yourselves is generally preferable. After all, abdicating your decision-making power when it comes to determining the schedule by which you will spend time with your children can be nerve-wracking. It must be said, however, that if your divorcing spouse refuses to negotiate with at least a modicum of good faith, turning to the court’s intervention may be your best option.
