Sometimes parents will meet with a Family Relations Counselor at the courthouse to get help making decisions.
A Family Relations Counselor is not a judge and cannot make decisions for your parents, but
If your parents get help from Family Services (also sometimes called Family Relations), they will meet with a counselor once or several times, depending on how much help they need. You might also have to talk to the counselor. The counselor’s job is to help your parents make decisions that are best for you.
The counselor will try to help your parents reach an agreement that meets everyone's needs. If your parents come to an agreement, they will write up a document that says what they will do. That document will be part of their divorce papers.
If they cannot work out an agreement, they will have to go to court and a judge will decide how their disagreements will be worked out.
