I'm in the process of drafting a final parenting plan- one geared at high conflict parents. I'll share the word template if anyone is interested on here.
But for now- my question to you all is how specific is your parenting plan?
The orders I see in court cases are HIGHLY specific- down to the times, etc etc, locations of exchanges, etc etc.
I know that specifics are going to be my friend in my situation...but I come up to things like Halloween, Easter, and Victoria day- the "lesser" holidays for lack of a better term, and wonder if I should include those? [although- I'll fight anyone who doesn't think Halloween>>>>].
Do you guys include all long weekends like Victoria day?
Do you make special provisions for parents' birthdays, etc?
I'm not talking about the standard splitting of summers and march break....although- if you have any insights on that it would be great. For example, how early in advance should the parents exchange the weeks they want? OR is it better to always have set timing- e.g. July with parent A, August with parent B in even years, and the reverse in odd years.
You would think more specific > less specific...but is that always the case?
