Good luck with your parenting plan! Writing Up Your Parenting Plan Custody and time-share agreement The procedure for writing up your parenting plan and getting a judge's signature so that it becomes a court order may be a little different from court to court.

Get the judge's signature on your stipulation. File your forms with the court clerk. Making your parenting agreement work Use a calendar Have a calendar that shows where the children will be and when. Put your calendar in a place that is easy to see. If you need to make a change, talk to the other parent about it to reach an agreement and make sure you explain the change to your children.
Children and parents do better when things are clear. When you and the other parent do not agree Parents do not always agree on what is best for their children. This is natural. It happens in every relationship, even when parents do not separate or divorce. Listen to the other parent and respect his or her point of view. Control your emotions, just like you do at work.
Do NOT put your children in the middle of your arguments with the other parent. Do NOT use physical violence or be mentally or emotionally abusive. Changing your plan You may need to change your parenting plan when your children get older and things in their lives change.
Talk it over with the other parent or see a counselor to help you. If that does not work, you may want to go back to family court mediation. Here are some things to consider to make you parenting plan work: Both parents have not just the right, but an obligation to care for a child while the child is ill. It is unreasonable to expect the primary custodial parent to take over all care of a sick child, just as it is unreasonable to deny parenting time due to minor illnesses.
It is typical for a sick child to be cranky and unhappy; moving him or her to the other home may only intensify these feelings. A change of environment may very well make a child feel better and help take his or her mind off the illness. When parents share care of an ill child, clear communication is crucial. If the child is on any kind of medication, knowing when the child took his or her last dose or when the next dose should be given is important information that parents should convey when exchanging the child.
Both parents may want to keep a simple log of what medications the child is taking and what the medication schedule is. Communicate with each other How you talk to each other and to your children can make a big difference. Here are some tips: Be polite, just like you would be at work.
Stay on the subject. Focus on doing what is best for your children. Control your emotions, just like you would do at work. The terms and conditions of this order may be added to or changed as the needs of the children and parents change.
