Custody:

Medical treatment

Parents with joint custody rights should make those decisions together.

This involves:

  • sharing relevant information
  • making inquiries together
  • understanding each others feelings and fears
  • involving the child in an age appropriate manner
  • being able to reconsider based on the results of the treatment.

This can be a very difficult process during an already difficult time. It can provide relief to get help in this process from a mediator.
