Guardians are responsible for the care and upbringing of, and decision making about, their child. |

There are two parts to guardianship: parental responsibilities and parenting time. |

<p> |
|
|
|
If you and the other parent have lived together with your children, both of you continue to |
|
|
|
be guardians after you separate. You'll need to figure out how you you'll care for and make |
|
|
|
decisions about your children. That is, how will you divide or share parenting |
|
|
|
responsibilities and parenting time? |

|
<p> |
|
|
|
Even though parents share these responsibilities when they're living together, the law does |
|
|
|
not assume that any particular arrangement is in the children's best interests after you |
|
|
|
split up. The law specifically says that courts can't assume that equal sharing of parenting |
|
|
|
time or equal allocation of parental responsibilities are in the children's best interests. |
