  • Legal custody has to be decided and agreed upon by both parents.
  • The plan should also include education for the children and who pays or how each pays.
  • Guidelines have to be set in the raising of the children pertaining to curfew, alcohol, or general discipline.
  • It is also vital to include communication between both parents and how any disputes are to be addressed
  • Travel and vacation time for each parent with the children have to be considered as well.
  • Other items such as who gives beneficiary to who in claiming dependencies in connection to taxes should also be discussed.
