What is the test for establishing a parenting schedule for access for a child?
Nova Scotia, Canada
The following excerpt is from K.L.T. v. M.A.T., 2008 NSFC 16 (CanLII):
In Cooper v. Cooper 2002 Carswell Sask 223, the court gave some guideline as to access schedules which, in the case before the court, are parenting schedules. The goal of any access (parenting) schedule should be to avoid long separations from both parents to minimize separation anxiety and to have sufficiently frequent and broad contact with each parent to keep the infant (or child) secure, trusting and comfortable in each relationship.
