Joint physical custody means the child has two abodes and physically lives with both parents.

Joint legal custody is another option, where the child lives with one parent, but together both parents make important decisions regarding the child, such as what school they will go to, etc.

Generally, parents choose a joint custody agreement , as it is in the best interest of their child. They acknowledge that in such an agreement the child has access to both parents and that this benefits the emotional growth of the child.

After deciding to have a joint custody agreement, there are some things a parent can do to make it work.

It is vital to uphold a cooperative approach about your custody situation. Despite how you may feel towards your ex, you will need to work together so that your child ultimately benefits.

Be reasonable regarding the schedule you create. Focus on doing what is best for your child. It is also extremely important to do so even if you feel that your ex is being uncooperative.

Having clear, exact documents about your joint custody agreement is also helpful, as it can also aid the parents work together.

Print out copies of the schedules and calendars and give them to your ex.

Co-parenting agreements can mean a lot of moving around for the child, and so it benefits both parents and child if the schedule or calendar is laid out clearly so that everyone involved knows exactly what's happening.
