Florida Divorce
In most cases both parents will remain in active roles with the children, sharing in decisions, medical appointments, school decisions etc. Children should never be used as a pawn in a divorce proceeding. If it is possible for the two parents to come to an agreement on the timesharing this is the most advantageous. Otherwise you will have a decision made by the court. In some cases a Guardian Ad Litem can be appointed to help determine the needs of the child(en). In regards to child support, there are Child Support Guidelines that apply for all cases. These guidelines will evaluate the parents’ combined income and payments will be determined based on this. Child support can be modified in the future if there is a change of circumstances, ie: loss of job, lowered income etc. Child support typically is not inclusive of college cost or future expenses for the child(en) and will be paid until the child turns 18 or graduates from high school.
