Start with the document
California’s court guidance describes legal custody in terms of important decisions, including education and health care. Read California Courts’ explanation. That is a jurisdiction-specific reference, not a substitute for the rules that apply to your family.
Make the response process clear
For a decision that needs discussion, identify the choice, useful information, deadline, and how an answer will be recorded. Keep an appointment’s logistics separate from the question of who may consent.
Review app permissions
CoFam’s parent and step-parent roles can use approvals and financial features. An app role or an accepted proposal does not determine legal consent or change an order.
Is this the same as equal overnight time?
Decision-making and the care schedule are different questions; check each separately.
Does an app approval replace legal consent?
No. Follow the applicable agreement, order, and requirements for the decision.
