  2. Richmond Hill Family Lawyers Book A Free Consultation. Call:(905) 237-5548 To answer this important question, we will start by defining what is meant by custody and outlining its different forms: Sole custody: This essentially means that one parent will be the key decider on the major decisions in the child’s life. This parent will have the prerogative to choose where the child will go to school, the details of any important medical treatment, religious upbringing, major activities, etc. https://www.richmondhillfamilylawyers.com/

  3. Richmond Hill Family Lawyers Book A Free Consultation. Call:(905) 237-5548 Joint custody: In this situation, both parents have essentially equal say in making key decisions for the child. In other words, both parents work together cooperatively to make decisions that are in the best interest of their child. The workability of joint custody depends on how well the parents agree and can handle the strains of a separation. While it can be a difficult balancing act for some, for others it may be the one thing that the separated couple are able to agree upon because they both prioritize their child’s needs above their own differences. https://www.richmondhillfamilylawyers.com/

Call:(905) 237-5548 Parallel Parenting: This is a more unique and rare form of joint custody where decision-making on particular major issues is divided amongst the parents. For example, one parent may be solely responsible for making decisions on religious affiliation and medical issues for the child, whereas the other parent may take up full authority on decisions pertaining to the child’s education. https://www.richmondhillfamilylawyers.com/

Residence and Access are two separate issues apart from major decisions. https://www.richmondhillfamilylawyers.com/
