Shared Parental Responsibility and Visitation in Florida

Shared parental responsibility means that both parents are involved in their child’s lives. It is most often preferred that both parents take an active role in raising their children, as this is better for the child. In fact, Florida’s public policy on the matter is to ensure that children have frequent, continued contact with both parents after a divorce. As such, visitation is important. A child may live with one parent and the other will set up frequent visitation, or the child may live with both parents and visitation may not be a factor in those cases.
