Legal custody vs. Physical custody: What’s the difference? ⚖️
When it comes to joint custody in Tennessee, it’s not just about where the children sleep at night. Here is a quick breakdown:
Legal Custody: Involves major life decisions like non-emergency healthcare, education, extracurriculars, and religious upbringing. Joint legal custody means both parents must decide together.
Physical Custody: Focuses on parenting time. Joint physical custody typically looks like a 50/50 split, often on a week-on, week-off schedule.
Agreement between parents makes the process much smoother, but it's always smart to build a roadmap for the future if disagreements pop up.
