Re: Sharing holidays during divorce
The law states that visitation shall be reasonable. Hopefully the parties can devise a written agreement at mediation which states the dates and times of visitation, if not, the case goes before the Judge and the Judge decides. Usually visitation for holidays the parents split the major holidays and alternate this schedule using even and odd numbered years. Others split the holiday in half. Remember, whatever you decide will effect the children forever. Always keep in mind the children's best interests.
