Document background
The Mutual Parenting Agreement serves as a comprehensive framework for parents who are separated or divorced to establish clear guidelines for their children's care and upbringing under Singapore law. This document becomes essential when parents need to formalize their arrangements regarding custody, care and control, access schedules, and financial responsibilities. It helps prevent future disputes by clearly defining each parent's rights and obligations while ensuring compliance with Singapore's legal requirements, particularly the Women's Charter and the Guardianship of Infants Act. The agreement prioritizes the best interests of the children and provides a stable foundation for co-parenting.
