At Shared Parenting Scotland we put the best interests of the child at the heart of everything we do.
What is shared parenting? Shared parenting is where parents share the care and responsibilities for their children as equally as possible. This should happen in all families, but it often becomes an issue when the parents separate and start living apart.
Shared parenting takes a flexible, child-centred approach where the child’s welfare and wellbeing are central to parenting. There is increasing evidence that it can provide a healthy and supportive environment to bring up children after separation.
At Shared Parenting Scotland we do this by:
- CAMPAIGNING for changes in law and legal procedures to support equal parenting
- HELPING and supporting parents to resolve disputes and put their children first
- INFORMING and educating professionals and politicians about latest research
- LISTENING and providing support and assistance on our helpline
- DEVELOPING a range of training programmes to assist separated parents
