Hundreds of thousands of Australian children live with only one parent, and spend varying amounts of time with the other.<\/p>\n
The law takes a subjective approach to the time a child or children spend with each parent. At the outset, there is a presumption of shared responsibility and hence shared care. The court will then look to the children’s best interests and the practical aspects of care before determining the time children spend with each parent where such an arrangement is in dispute.<\/p>\n

When the\u00a0Family Law Act 1975<\/em>\u00a0(\u201cthe Act<\/strong>\u201c) was introduced, it used the terms \u201ccustody\u201d and \u201caccess\u201d, and these are still probably the terms most non-lawyers use. Then they were changed to \u201cresidence\u201d and \u201ccontact\u201d, and in 2006 the words \u201clives with\u201d and \u201cspends time with\u201d were introduced. \u201cParental responsibility\u201d covers not just responsibility, but also the right to be involved in decisions about children \u2013 education, sport, health and so on.<\/p>\n 2006 saw major changes to the Act. Unless a court decides otherwise, the parental responsibility is joint and shared, so neither parent has the right to make major decisions themselves. These decisions typically cover issues such as schooling, name changes and medical issues.<\/p>\n Time spent with a child by the non-residential parent should be \u2018substantial and significant\u2019, and should allow parent and child to share one another\u2019s interests. Contact during weekdays is seen as normal, subject of course to distance and other constraints. And above all, it is the child\u2019s interest which is \u2018paramount\u2019.<\/p>\n All cases about children are dealt with under the Act. It does not matter whether the parents are married, in a de facto relationship, or have never lived together. Orders about children can also be sought by others, such as grandparents or those who have been step-parents.<\/p>\n The fact that children have been exposed to abuse or violence does not mean that they should have no contact with an abusive or violent parent, but it obviously makes finding a suitable contact regime harder. In most cases, the law is that a child is entitled to a relationship with both parents, and the real question is \u201cHow much time should a child spend with a parent<\/em>?\u201d<\/p>\n We often hear a parent say that the child does not want to see the other parent. The courts tend to be rather skeptical about the genuineness of those wishes, and say that it is the residential parent\u2019s responsibility to assist with and encourage parent-child contact.<\/p>\n In a mobile society such as Australia today, often a parent will move away, so that regular contact becomes very difficult. The parent with whom a child is living does not have the right to move a child without agreement or a court approval, and courts and lawyers call cases about moves \u2018relocation cases\u2019.<\/p>\n Once again, it is the welfare of the child which is \u201cparamount\u201d. Is a planned move in the child\u2019s best interests? Just moving and worrying about legal outcomes later can be expensive and risky \u2013 courts have ordered children to be brought back to the original area while a decision is made, and have the power to punish a parent who breaches court orders without a good excuse.<\/p>\n There are three ways agreements or decisions are made:<\/p>\n A parenting plan is not an enforceable agreement, but if the parties subsequently are in court, the court will have regard to the terms of the parenting plan. Consent orders are obtained by a joint application to the court, without any actual attendances in court. They have the same legal effect as orders made by a judicial decision. They can also be obtained at any stage during court proceedings.<\/p>\n A judicial decision is obviously the most expensive way of resolving matters, but it takes two to make an agreement. Going to court may be the only available option.<\/p>\n Because no family situations are ever identical, relying on gossip or even past experience can be asking for trouble.
