Summer is around the corner, and if you are co-parenting, now is the time to get ahead of seasonal schedule changes. A little early planning can go a long way in preventing stress and setting your child up for success.
Here are a few legal reminders to keep in mind:
✅Review your custody agreement - Look for summer-specific guidelines like vacation request deadlines or travel restrictions.
✅Communicate early and in writing - Whether you are discussing trips, camps, or child care, written communication helps avoid misunderstandings.
✅Check notice requirements - Many agreements require advance notice for schedule changes or travel.
✅Plan transitions - Talk about transportation, medical needs, and how you will stay in contact with your co-parent.
✅Confirm travel rules - Traveling out of state or abroad? You might need written consent or court approval.
✅Document all changes - If you adjust the schedule, make sure it is in writing.
