A child has a fundamental right to spend time with both of his or her parents.
The U.S. Supreme Court recognizes that the relationship between parent and child must be constitutionally protected in order to
preserve the child’s right to have two parents guide in their upbringing and care for their well-being.
preserve the child’s right to equal access to both fit parents.
preserve the child’s relationship with the extended families of each parent.
preserve the child’s right to benefit from the resources of each parent.
The data is irrefutable; equal and shared parenting ensures that children have the best possible environment for success when both parents guide their upbringing and care for their well-being.
