As a parent, it can be challenging to deal with any disruption to the everyday routines of your family life. Fortunately, recent changes in the law have made it easier for both parents to maintain a strong presence in their children’s lives.Â
Parents are important figures in a child’s life, sharing intimate, fun, and meaningful experiences. These experiences are invaluable for everyday items like getting ready for school, sharing meals, and tucking them into bed. All of this can make all the difference in helping to build and nurture a loving bond between parent and child, whatever the custody arrangement ends up being.
