What should I include in a parenting plan during a collaborative divorce?

A parenting plan in a collaborative divorce should be detailed, child-focused, and designed to reduce future conflict. The goal is to create clarity while preserving flexibility and cooperation.

Key components often include:

  • A regular custody and visitation schedule
  • Holiday, school break, and vacation schedules
  • Decision-making authority for education, healthcare, and extracurricular activities
  • Communication guidelines between parents
  • Transportation and exchange logistics
  • Methods for resolving future disputes (such as mediation)

Collaborative divorce allows parents to tailor a plan that works for their family, rather than leaving decisions to a judge. A well-crafted parenting plan can prevent costly litigation later.
