Virtual home learning or in-school classrooms? A couple of years ago this would not have probably been a topic during a family divorce. But as the pandemic continues more parents are struggling with this question.
Many parents who are divorcing wonder how the courts would decide. The answer is that there is no case law yet, and the courts have not taken an official position other than what would be in the best interest of the child.
But the deeper question is do you really want the courts to determine how your child(ren) will be taught during the pandemic?
Parents should be the ones to decide what is in the best interest of their own children and courts would prefer that. Parents should decide.
What if you cannot come to an agreement?
Courts often require parents to attend a 10-week co-parenting course available online. There licensed professionals coach parents while they develop the skills and tools necessary to provide an environment in which their children can thrive.
