According to Wyoming laws, you and the other parent should consider the following factors when making decisions regarding the development of your parenting plan:
1. The quality of the relationship each child has with each parent.
2. The ability of each parent to provide adequate care for each child throughout each period of responsibility, including arranging for each child's care by others as needed.
3. The relative competency and fitness of each parent.
4. Each parent's willingness to accept all responsibilities of parenting, including a willingness to accept care for each child at specified times and to relinquish care to the other parent at specified times.
5. How the parents and each child can best maintain and strengthen a relationship with each other.
6. How the parents and each child interact and communicate with each other and how such interaction and communication may be improved.
7. The ability and willingness of each parent to allow the other to provide care without intrusion, respect the other parent's rights and responsibilities, including the right to privacy.
8. Geographic distance between the parents' residences.
9. The current physical and mental ability of each parent to care for each child.
The Wyoming 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).
