Matthew Brickman Sidney Mitchell MediateThis! Prior to this bill, he explained, "Dissolution of marriage proceeding with children, or in a paternity case, the issues of parenting were to be worked out between the parties. If the parties were not able to, well, the court would decide it, but most judges don't want to get involved in that because that's unique to each family." But after the bill the statute now says that the court shall order that parental responsibility be shared unless the court finds that shared parental responsibility to be detrimental to the child. In his words, "Well, what that means is that means that moms and dads are on equal footing. They are two equal 50 50 CEOs of the company Child, Inc. That means that all decisions are run between the two parents. Nobody has 51% control of the company. It's equal, say, equal decision making."
