Children's Calendar by Google
Are you familiar with Google Calendar? It's a free, web-based calendar that works great and is very easy to use. Grant Griffiths of the Kansas Family Law Blog recently suggested that divorced parents use this service to share their child's schedule.
Grant stated "with the online service, each parent would now have their child's schedule and why not include the visitation schedule on the same shared calendar. This would also eliminate the problem of one parent complaining about not knowing what is going on with school and summer activities."
You would probably be surprised to learn what a problem parents often have keeping each other informed of their child's activities. In fact, this "failure to communicate" often leads to litigation to correct the problem. With services like Google Calendar making the sharing of information so easy, parents will have a tougher time in the future for not sharing such information.
