Stop co-parenting arrangement

Questioner

Dear, my question is that I have had a co-parenting arrangement with my ex-partner for 9 years, but my son no longer wants it because their contact has been damaged to a great extent, but he really refuses to stop the co-parenting. Can I get out of this earlier?

You can indeed terminate or change the co-parenting arrangement in the following way: 1. Consult with the other parent: First try to find a solution with the other parent and see if you can come to a new arrangement together. 2. Consider mediation: Before submitting a request for modification, it is wise to consider mediation. This is an informal way to reach a solution. 3. Obtain legal advice: If the consultation does not lead to a solution, it is wise to engage a lawyer who specializes in personal and family law. 4. Submit a request to change the arrangement: If the other parent is not willing to come to a new arrangement, a request to change the arrangement can be submitted to the court.
