Parenting plans must also determine the decision-making responsibility in cases where parents are divorcing or separating. This applies to both married and unmarried parents whether or not they cohabitate. Sole decision-making responsibility means that one parent has the right to make decisions about the child’s upbringing. Joint decision-making responsibility requires both parents to share equally in the decision-making responsibilities. Split decision-making responsibility means that parents have split responsibility for making decisions about more than one child.
