- Caregiving responsibilities. Where will your children live during the week and on weekends? Where will they spend holidays? How will health decisions be made? What kind of education will be provided?
- Financial responsibilities. How will you divvy up the costs of big-ticket concerns like education expenses, braces, camps, and ongoing tutoring or sports activities?
- Practical updates. You may need to notify current care providers (nanny, babysitters, etc.), find new care providers if you are changing residences, update your children’s guardians, and start to consider a mutually agreeable child support strategy.
