How Do Parenting Plans Work?
Parenting plans are created to outline the parenting arrangement of a child after a divorce or separation. The plan will include details on how a child will be shared between the parental households and how they will be cared for while with each parent.
Parenting plans can include details on how a child's education, religious upbringing, healthcare, extra-curricular activities, and more will be handled, how the parents will communicate with one another, and how the child will be transported between the households. These plans generally include a schedule of overnights spent with each parent and how special occasions will be arranged, such as birthdays, holidays, summer vacations, and more.
The more detailed the plan, the better because it helps to avoid potential conflicts. Furthermore, when parents come to terms with these arrangements on their own, future cooperation is more likely to occur, and fewer conflicts generally arise.
Parenting plans can be temporary or permanent. A temporary plan is used until a permanent plan is created. Permanent plans may not be made until a year or two after a divorce. The permanent plan will outline the long-term arrangements for the child.

Expert Guidance by a Parenting Plan Coordinator
Divorce cases involving children can be challenging and emotionally charged, often resulting in complex custody battles. The services of a Parenting Plan Coordinator provide valuable support to help parents navigate these high-conflict situations and reach agreements that benefit them and their families.
In many instances, parents initially agree on custody and visitation arrangements. However, as their children age, these agreements may require formal modification through the court system. Parenting coordination serves as a child-centered approach to resolving disputes. It incorporates parent education, impartial assessment of conflicts, facilitated negotiations, and effective conflict management to successfully settle parenting disagreements.
Our attorney is an official Parenting Planning Coordinator for the courts. She has undergone the training required to satisfy legal qualifications and can be appointed by either parents or by the court in a case.
While a Parenting Plan Coordinator cannot make decisions or modify agreements, she can do the following:
- Meet with co-parents to resolve disagreements
- Provide advice and guidance on custody and Parenting Plans as well as healthcare, school issues, discipline, and other issues
- Interview parents, teachers, coaches, doctors, and others for important information about the family and the child and how to best handle custody issues
- Monitor how parents comply with Parenting Plans for the court
- Recommend optimum custody arrangements and parenting time to the court in a disputed case
