The IMDMA used to refer to child custody when it came to determining how parents would make important decisions about their child’s upbringing and would spend time with the child after a divorce or a separation. Relatively recent changes to Illinois have resulted in the state law shifting to the terminology of “parental responsibilities.” Accordingly, Park Ridge parents are no longer awarded child custody, but instead can be allocated certain parental responsibilities. Those parental responsibilities include significant decision-making responsibilities (what we formerly thought of as legal custody) and parenting time (formerly discussed as physical custody and visitation).
When parents can reach an agreement about how to allocate parental responsibilities based on the best interests of their children, the court can approve that parenting plan. Parents who develop a parenting plan can have more control over the allocation process, and a Park Ridge family lawyer can help.
