What do you need to think about when making child custody (parenting) arrangements?

Every situation is unique, so it’s important to take the nuances of your circumstances when creating a parenting arrangement.

Some of the things you should think about when making the arrangement include:

• Location of your children’s school
• Your children’s activities, including out-of-school activities
• Care requirements
• Medical treatment requirements
• How you share the financial responsibility with the other parent
• How you communicate with the other parent
• The children’s wishes (if they are older)
