Yes. In an action where a permanent parenting plan is or will be entered each parent shall attend a parent educational seminars as soon as possible after the filing of the complaint. T.C.A. § 36-6-408(a). Since both final decrees and decrees of modifications require the incorporation of permanent parenting plans, the parties to a post-divorce petition are required to attend the seminars.
