FLORIDA SENATE ALIMONY REFORM BILL SB 718 PASSES FLORIDA HOUSE - The Taylor Law Office
Everyone seems to be focused on the alimony (spousal support changes) but it is the presumed equal shared parenting that catches my eye. I can't believe that Florida could be so progressive.
If they can get a law like that passed in Florida, it should be do-able in Ontario!
The linked article of course sees it as a bad thing. I have no idea how presumed equal shared parenting can lead to increased litigation. To me, the opposite would be true. Once parents get it through their head that divorce will involve sharing, and will not involve "victory", I imagine most will be much more willing to work things out.
