ICYMI - When Co-Parenting Gets Expensive and Nobody Agreed to It

ICYMI - When Co-Parenting Gets Expensive and Nobody Agreed to It

Divorce and child expenses are supposed to be settled in the separation agreement, but financial planner Anita Bruinsma says that document only takes you so far. What it cannot anticipate is the horseback riding hobby, the $300 hockey stick, or the braces one parent books before the other has signed off. http://ClarityOnYourMoney.com contributor Bruinsma maps out where the money friction actually lives after a divorce is finalised.

The bigger costs fall under an extraordinary expense framework that requires both parents to agree ahead of time, but Bruinsma is clear that agreement is the hardest part. The smaller costs, the ones nobody formally tracks, tend to accumulate unevenly and build resentment just as effectively as the large ones.

Her practical fix is straightforward: document everything, use the available tools to take the emotion out of it, and sort it like adults before the kids end up in the middle.

Topics: co-parenting money, child costs divorce, separation agreement expenses, divorce financial planning, extraordinary expenses Canada
