Information About

Shared Parenting




Shared parenting refers to a family arrangement in Child Custody or Divorce settlements, in which the care of the Children is equal, or more than substantially shared, between the natural parents. Such arrangements encourage children to know both parents are involved and share responsibility in their upbringing. This is generally considered to be a desirable plan in order to parent chidren separately. It is, however, still uncommon in situations where Family Law practitioners have become involved, which is due to the adversarial nature of the courts.

More rarely, shared parenting refers to a similar situation after the separation of adoptive or other non biological parents.
