According to Oklahoma laws, you and the other parent should consider the following factors when making decisions regarding the development of your parenting plan:
1. The best interests of the child.
2. The willingness for each parent to continue contact with the child.
3. The parents willingness to allow the child frequent and continuing contact with the other parent.
4. The child's desires.
5. The parent's desires.
6. The education of the child.
7. The developmental requirements for the child.
8. Any medical conditions.

The Oklahoma courts realize you and the other parent know your own situation better than anyone else, which is why this is your opportunity to create a parenting plan that will maintain a family structure that is in the best interests of your child(ren).
