Parenting Plans structure weekly time, holidays, summers and special events for the children with parents.  Parenting Plans call out special provisions surrounding the children, how information is shared, future moves of parent and much more.  Our mediators send parents a worksheet to assist in constructing the Parenting Plan for efficiency in sessions.  As parents, you can select a variety of creative options for your children through mediation.  If you agree as parents to a plan, a judge will very rarely object to your decision.

If you have teenagers, our mediators like to schedule one session with them.  This allows teens to voice concerns and desires in the divorce process.  Often, teens feel divorce is something done TO them, not WITH them.  This is not a counseling session,  rather, a listening session for teens to give input into a Parenting Plan.

You can download the Parenting Plan Worksheet.  Please complete this worksheet before the Parenting Plan session.  This will save you time and money in mediation.  Please call if you have any questions.
