OSD Presents…Handy Hints (31)

You may find a situation where you and your former partner wish to alter your parenting orders.

This can either be done by filing an application for Consent Orders setting out the new agreed terms or, if it is just a minor change or you only want to alter the Orders for a period of time, you can make the change in a parenting plan.

A parenting plan is a written document that sets out an agreement between parents and is signed and dated.

You do not need legal advice before signing a parenting plan, although we of course recommend it.
