How To Create a Long Distance Parenting Plan

I was trolling the net for long distance parenting stuff and I ran across this gem : Instructions and Guidance for your Long Distance Parenting Plan by the 6th Judicial Circuit Court of Florida, Family Law Division.

It’s a really great rundown of the stuff to consider in creating a long distance parenting plan including a good list of links to other resources as well as to sample parenting plans including important aspects of long distance parenting such as travel arrangements.

It wasn’t so long ago that a ‘long distance parenting plan’ was unheard of and long distance parents were considered deadbeats by default and automatically discounted in their efforts to maintain relationships with their kids. Kudos to this court for being proactive in their effort to help these situations be easier and healthier to all involved.
