Instead of "primary residential" parenting or custody, Florida statutes will use the term "shared parental responsibility". Instead of the word "visitation", Florida statutes and judges and divorce attorneys are required to use the word "time-sharing". Florida is one of the few states that have enacted the statute abolishing the customary terms "custody" and "visitation". Parenting plans have become far more detailed involving all issues of the children in their daily lives, in communication between the parents and the children, and other activities concerning the children. Immediately, and ultimately, these changes should work for the benefit of Florida's children and their parents.
