physical custody

affects where the children will be

living

and where they will be staying with the

non-custodial parent

it’s essentially a parenting time

schedule

legal custody in turn

is about decision making it’s about

deciding educational issues

medical issues religious issues

issues that involve

your children’s lives

and the courts here in new york presume

that those decisions will be made

jointly with both parents consulting

with one another

and thinking about what’s in the best

interests of the children
