What Does Sole Parent Responsibility Mean?

  • Summary

  • Parent responsibility is often confused with custody arrangements for a child.


    If the parent has sole parental responsibility, it doesn't mean that the other parent will not spend time with the child, it does not mean that the parent with sole parental responsibility spends all the time with that child.


    What is means, is that the parent with sole parental responsibility is responsible for mage long-term decisions of a child.


    What does the court define as a long-term decision?


    Anything that will affect the child over a long-term basis, for example, the child's religion, major health decision of the child, major operations etc.


    These things are considered major long-term decisions, and the parent with sole parental responsibility means that the parent with this responsibility makes all of these decisions for this child.


    However, the child still spends time with the other parent, but the parent who has sole parent responsibility can make all of their long-term decisions for that child.
