III. Residential Schedule
The residential schedule must set forth where the child(ren) shall reside each day
of the year, including provisions for holidays, birthdays of family members, vacations,
and other special occasions, and what contact the child(ren) shall have with each
parent. Parents are encouraged to create a residential schedule that meets the developmental
needs of the child(ren) and individual needs of their family. Paragraphs 3.1 through
3.9 are one way to write your residential schedule. If you do not use these paragraphs,
write in your own schedule in Paragraph 3.13
Figure 1 shows the following option: "Select "Yes"
if you will not be using Paragraphs 3.1 - 3.9 and would like to add the following
language to each paragraph, See Paragraph 3.13. If you prefer different language
use the other option in each paragraph."
