Georgia Spencer, Law Graduate at Orbell Family Lawyers (located in Erina), offers a contemporary perspective on co\u2013parenting in today\u2019s world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Going through a separation is never easy, and co\u2013parenting can add an extra layer of complexity. But it is possible to navigate co\u2013parenting with positivity, teamwork and legal guidance. In this article, we discuss the challenges and benefits of co\u2013parenting, highlight the legal aspects of co\u2013parenting and answer some frequently asked questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Benefits of Co\u2013Parenting<br><\/strong>Co\u2013parenting involves working collaboratively with your former partner to raise your children. While it can be challenging and overwhelming, co\u2013parenting has many benefits such as allowing your children to maintain a close relationship with both parents, providing stability and routine, and creating a supportive family dynamic. By putting your personal feelings aside and focusing on your children\u2019s needs, you can create a positive, new chapter in your family\u2019s lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Challenges of Co\u2013Parenting<br><\/strong>It would be remiss to overlook the fact that co\u2013parenting presents its own set of challenges. When emotions are high, maintaining effective communication can be difficult. But it\u2019s essential to find a communication method that works for both parents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Decision making can also be challenging, particularly when you and your former partner have conflicting opinions. This can make listening to each other and being open to compromise crucial in moving forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are struggling with co\u2013parenting, it is important to seek professional support from an experienced family lawyer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are many other services and resources designed to help separating families such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Counselling services and information<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Printable brochures about family law services<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Financial advice; and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Information in other languages. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.familyrelationships.gov.au\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">www.familyrelationships.gov.au<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>How the Law interacts with Co\u2013Parenting<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Parental Responsibility<br><\/strong>Parental responsibility refers to decision making and not time spent with the children. Generally, there is a presumption that parents should make joint decisions about school, health, education, religion etc however in some cases this can be rebutted such as where there are risks to the children or where there has been family violence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Who children live with and spend time with<br><\/strong>Parents can work together to create an agreement that covers parenting issues, including living arrangements, decision making and time spent with each parent. We, at Orbell Family Lawyers, help separating families negotiate and formalise parenting arrangements to enable you to move forward and can assist with preparing a Parenting Plan or Consent Order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Frequently Asked Questions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Do both parents have to make joint decisions and agree on everything?<br><\/strong>No, however it is important both parents try to work together to make decisions that are in the \u2018best interests of their children\u2019. If parents are unable to compromise or agree, they may benefit from attending mediation or seeking legal advice to resolve any issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What are the steps involved if both parents cannot agree on a parenting arrangement?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Consult an experienced family lawyer who can help you explore your options and develop a plan that will work for you and your children <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Attend mediation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If all other avenues have been exhausted, it may be necessary to apply to Court.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Can co\u2013parents change their parenting agreement?<br><\/strong>Yes, co\u2013parents can change their agreement if both parties agree or by going to mediation or Court. Any changes to the agreement should be made in writing, preferably done with the assistance of a qualified family lawyer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What do the Courts consider in relation to parenting arrangements?<br><\/strong>The \u2018children\u2019s best interests\u2019 is the number one priority, rather than what is best for the parents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What if there is a history of domestic violence?<br><\/strong>While co\u2013parenting is promoted, children\u2019s wellbeing is paramount. If children are at risk, the Court will take appropriate action to safeguard them. You should seek advice from an experienced family lawyer and contact the police if you and or your children are in danger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Navigating the family law system in Australia can be made easier by understanding the legal responsibilities and rights of co\u2013parents. While co\u2013parenting can be challenging, it can also be a fulfilling experience as it allows parents to establish a nurturing family environment. By prioritising effective communication, mutual respect and a child\u2013centric approach, co\u2013parents can successfully navigate the complexities of shared parenting and create a happy and healthy future for their children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We, at Orbell Family Lawyers, specialise in family law.
