Decisions
When parents separate or divorce, they have to make a lot of decisions.
First, they have to decide on custody and access, or who their children will live with and how that will work.
For example:
|
If the children live with one parent, when will they get to see the other parent? How often? And for how long? |
|
If the children live with both parents, will they stay with one parent during the week and the other during the weekend? Or will they spend one week with one parent and one week with the other? |
Then parents have to decide how much money one parent has to give the other to help pay for the things their children need. This is called child support.
