→The possible subjects of a marriage agreement
*How will children born during the marriage be cared for after separation?
Except for the restrictions about parental responsibilities, parenting time and child support, the possible subjects of a marriage agreement are limited only by imagination, common sense , and the law of contracts, and . I've seen some fairly unique marriage agreements from time to time, including agreements, likely unenforceable, that talk about the frequency of sex and who will take out the garbage.
However, as a general rule of thumb, it's best to deal with the concrete things that exist at the time of the marriage (such as children from a previous relationship, existing debts, and existing property) and things that the couple can reasonably expect to happen during the marriage in the short term (such as receiving an inheritance or a court award). Dealing with things that ''might'' happen (like new children, a move to a new town , or lottery winnings) is really speculative, and it's almost impossible to know how they should be dealt with if, at some unknown point in the future, the marriage comes to an end.
