Support for the moments that happen after the agreement
A parenting plan can look good on paper and still fail during a missed pickup, a school decision, or a tense holiday exchange. Common Ground Family Solutions helps parents turn broad intentions into specific operating rules. We focus on what each parent can control, what your children need next, and how to handle disagreements without pulling children into the middle.

From daily friction to a usable plan
We address the patterns causing conflict, then build tools you can use after the session ends.
Map the pressure points
We identify where communication, transitions, schedules, or decisions are creating repeated conflict.
Set shared priorities
We put the child's needs first and separate essential decisions from issues that can wait.
Build workable rules
We create specific agreements for communication, changes, exchanges, expenses, and upcoming calendar events.
Practice the next hard moment
We test the plan against real scenarios so each parent knows what to do when circumstances change.
A positive alternative to court involvement
Is co-parenting support only for parents who are separated?
No. It can help separated, divorced, unmarried, or together parents who are stuck in repeated conflict about parenting decisions and routines.
Can you help us create a parenting schedule?
Yes. We can help you think through regular weeks, school breaks, holidays, transportation, activities, travel, and the process for requesting changes. We will not provide legal advice and any agreements are not binding on the parties if they are not court ordered.
What if the other parent refuses to participate?
We can still help you clarify your own communication, boundaries, documentation, and response strategies. We will also discuss practical ways to invite the other parent into a structured process.
How quickly can we address an upcoming holiday or school issue?
We prioritize time-sensitive decisions first. Contact us with the deadline, and we can explain the available consultation and scheduling options.
