Its official---- effective 0ctober 1, 2008 moms and dads no longer have the stilted and some times litigious labels of “primary residential parent” and “secondary residential parent” they are officially parents-just parents . Numerous changes in the nomenclature and the substantive law has occurred and every divorced (or contemplating divorce) or single parent needs to know how this may impact their lives. The term “custody” is abolished.
“Parenting Plans”, “Co-Parenting”,”Shared Parenting” are the official terms and the whole goal is to reduce litigation and to focus parents on what’s best for their kids not trial strategy or other motivations. The changes are really codification of what has been happening in Florida Courts for the past several years and should give parents the opportunity to focus on their kids and not on each other.
