About the Podcast

Parental relationships are largely forged while children are young, but when families break down, age can often be used as a weapon in limiting access. With this dilemma in mind and changing societal attitudes, the courts are rethinking parenting arrangements for young children. This session will examine the developments in this area, including:

  • The starting point in access considerations
  • The benefits and problems in overnight parenting arrangements – what does the research show?
  • Is age the key or are there other considerations at play?
  • How do the courts look at this issue – case examples discussed
  • How do the courts view a child’s desires when it comes to access?
  • How often should access arrangements be reviewed?
  • Effective use and management of family report writers in access cases
