How is custody affected with school online for COVID-19? With the school systems going virtual nowadays, changing existing custody agreements may become challenging.
In this situation, both parties should be committed to being on the same page regarding their children’s best interests.
The attorneys at Turner-Monahan have helped thousands of clients through their custody process and know how to create and fight for a plan that works for you.
Learn today from Tyler Monahan what effects virtual schooling in this time of COVID-19 has on custody cases and how these should be properly dealt with.
Regarding the COVID situation with 50/50 possession and access, a school may not have in-person classes, and you will be doing things virtually or online.
I believe it will be up to each parent to make sure that their children are partaking in the virtual or online classes they’re supposed to while the children are in each respective parent’s possession.
There have been a few cases that we’ve had recently where the judges have stated that it’s very important that both parents be involved in understanding how the virtual online system works, checking on it, making sure that they keep in contact with the teachers and that their children are performing the work regardless of whether the child is in your possession or not.
That way, everybody’s on the same page, and they can make sure they’re doing what’s in the best interest of their child or children.
