Real Legal might be able to help with lockdown child arrangements
Times of crisis often bring out the best of human nature, but the added complications of coronavirus can cause disputes.
Arguments about the care of children are all too common and with the added complication of the coronavirus lockdown, separated parents may be struggling to keep the peace.
The precise nature of the restrictions put in place by the government have left many with questions yet to be answered. One such question relates to the responsibilities of parents for their children when the mother and father have separated and are living apart.
As it stands, the government has placed the country in a state of enforced social distancing, but that does not mean you can’t transfer your children from one parent to another. A healthy upbringing for a child requires continuity. If you are struggling to reach an agreement about child arrangements then you’re not alone, and there may be legal recourse available to help you.
Resolving disputes is about communication, it’s about compromise, and people should work together with a spirit of understanding and mutual respect. Sometimes it takes a third party to get involved because they can see things dispassionately. The coronavirus has already caused significant disruption to the children of this country, let’s try not to make the situation any worse.
Remember, although we’re in lockdown:
- Separated parents can still work together to find solutions that work for all parties
