Don't Forget to Add Vacation Parenting Time to Your Colorado Parenting Plan
When you are filling out your Parenting Plan, don't forget to draft an agreement regarding additional parenting time for vacations.
Vacation parenting time supersedes the regular parenting time and is often for an extended, uninterrupted period during the children's summer vacation. Often, the period will be for 2 weeks, or for 2 periods of 1 week each.
Both parents may have vacation time and usually designate a day to inform the other parent of their vacation plans. For example, the plan may say that the parents will inform each other of their vacation plans no later than the first day of May of each year. If the parents both want the same dates, then on even years the father has priority and mother must reset her dates, and on odd years the mother has priority and father must reset his dates.
