If both parents agree on joint custody, the next question should be: “How does this arrangement benefit our child?” If he is very young, making an agreement to move him from one parent’s home to the other several times each week is too disruptive.

If your child moves from one house to the other without a enough time to adjust and find a consistant rythmn, he may begin to feel unsafe and emotionally unstable. It is important to establish consistent routines in each home because children need structure.

Longer periods of time spent with each parent may be preferable so one week on and one week off may be a better arrangement.

Legal Help

Parents can agree to have a different custody agreement for each child. Because of the difference in ages, the rules may well be different for each child.
