Child Custody May have Utah Parents Considering Co-Parenting

For some Utah parents, working together for the benefit of their children after a divorce could be a common goal. Depending on the outcomes of child custody proceedings, this goal may work out better for some parents than others. However, if co-parenting is an avenue that divorced parents would like to navigate, it is important that they remember to keep the best interests of their children in mind.

When divorced parents hope to remain a team while raising their children, communication is a big factor. If parents are unable to express their wishes for the rules and treatment of their children, one parent may end up taking more control, and the situation may not feel like co-parenting. It may also be prudent to communicate via email or text message in order to keep records of any agreements that are made between the parents in case an issue arises.

In some cases, parents may need assistance when it comes to co-parenting successfully. Therefore, family counseling could be an option that parents may wish their ex-spouse and children participate in. Previous issues may be able to be worked out during counseling, and parenting together as a divorced couple may become easier.

Before co-parenting can take place, parents must come to child custody agreements. Depending on the circumstances of the divorce, co-parenting may not even be an option. No matter what the case, parents should ensure that agreements are made that will benefit the children involved. By better understanding child custody options in Utah, parents may have a better idea of what they wish to work toward during their proceedings.

I absolutely believe that Brown Family Law is the best divorce attorney law firm in Utah. Attorney Ray Hingson did a fantastic job for me in a complicated divorce. He was there to guide me through the entire process. Ray touched base with me every week AND every time I called with worries or concerns. He handled things confidently and professionally. He took time to meet with me and explain everything so I could understand it. I felt like he really cared and wanted to do his best for me. His paralegal, Carren Leavitt, was also extremely helpful. All I had to do was pick up the phone and call her and she arranged a time for Ray to call me right back. She was always prompt and caring. I couldn't be happier!
Anne and Josh are Fantastic!!
