It is essential to consider school holidays when discussing the Child Arrangements Order.
During school breaks, many parents like to take their children on vacation or spend more time with them. The arrangement for the child’s school holidays should be included in the CAO document to avoid any misunderstandings.
An effective way to allocate school holidays can be alternating the years or dividing them equally.
Christmas is an essential time of year, which means it could become a source of conflict between parents.
However, with a Child Arrangements Order, specific arrangements are made in advance, ensuring that the children have quality time with both parents, without any arguments.
For instance, the order might specify the parent who will have access to the child on Christmas Eve or Christmas morning. This will contribute significantly to the children’s happiness, as they will not feel forced to choose between their parents.
Birthdays are significant milestones in a child’s life, and both parents should have the opportunity to be a part of them.

Mediation agreements are not legally binding in themselves. However, they can be made legally enforceable by entering them into a court order.

Mediation is a completely voluntary process, so all parties involved must agree on the terms and sign the documentation required.
Lakes Mediation ensures that the legal implications of the agreement are thoroughly discussed before the documents are signed, to ensure parties understand what is involved.
