What are the rights of a non-custodial parent in deciding / making daycare arrangements?
It would not be a joint custody arrangement if only the custodial parent makes decisions. There are two aspects to custody: legal and physical. If one parent has primary physical custody, he or she is not also granted sole legal custody. A parent without primary physical custody can, and should, be involved in legal custody decisions. Daycare arrangements are a legal custody matter. Another matter to consider is the cost of the daycare and whether the other parent can provide care in lieu of a third party.
