Parenting orders are court orders that determine the parenting arrangements for children after separation. They cover:

  1. Living Arrangements: Where the children will live.
  2. Parental Responsibility: Decision-making responsibilities for the children’s welfare.
  3. Communication: How the children will maintain contact with the non-resident parent.

The court prioritises the best interests of the children, focusing on their safety and well-being and maintaining meaningful relationships with both parents.
