What are parental rights and responsibilities?
The “allocation of parental rights and responsibilities” is what we once called custody. It is the court’s determination, or the parties agreement as to how each parent will be responsible for the development and well being of their children. These orders can include things like visitation/parenting time schedules, school district designation, and child support.
