“Shared custody” is a term used by the ''Federal Child Support Guidelines | “Shared custody” is a term used by the ''Federal Child Support Guidelines'', but not by either the ''DA'' or the ''FLA''. Shared custody is a form of joint custody in which the child spends an almost equal time with each parent. Typically, the child would be switching homes on a frequent basis, such as every few days or once a week. This usually requires that the parents live near one another and have good communication skill. It also requires that the child is able to adapt to living in two homes. Any agreement for shared custody will affect child support. | ||
