Providing expert assistance for developing effective, high-quality parenting plans, this book covers a broad range of information that serves as both essential reference material and a hands-on toolbox for family lawyers and related professionals. Author Daniel J. Hynan, Ph.D., ABAP, considers everything from ongoing controversies to empirical research to practical yet crucial considerations in the day-to-day lives of families.

Accessible to professionals with all levels of experience in the area, this book integrates practical considerations about parenting plans with scientifically based and professional information. It begins by describing many of the controversies in the parenting plan arena, then provides a description of the foundation for building a good parenting plan.

Parenting Plans: Meeting the Challenges with Facts and Analysis provides important information to assist in creating age- and situation-appropriate plans. Topics include:



An overview of scientific, factual information about what is important for children of separation and divorce

Difficult parenting plan cases that raise issues about very young children, domestic violence, or other family conflict

Questions or concerns about child mental health and/or special needs

Dealing with parental mental health and related problems

Cases that involve allegations of parental alienation or possible relocation

Parenting plan concerns for gay and lesbian parents, as well as never married parents

Child abuse and/or neglect

Circumstantial factors and children’s ages and stages of development that need to be considered

Real family law cases often involve a combination of issues that cover several of these areas of concern. The book includes parenting plan case descriptions that include real-life complexities and related efforts to develop time-sharing calendars that promote what is best for the children.

Daniel J. Hynan, PhD, ABAP, is a clinical and forensic psychologist in independent practice. For decades, he has had a specialty in working with children and families of divorce. He has extensive experience conducting evaluations of parenting time, decision making, child custody, visitation, relocation, and individual functioning relevant to parenting. He also carries out work product reviews and trial consultations. Soon after he began to specialize in work with children of divorce in the early 1990s, he recognized the need to increase the scientific foundations of evaluations and integrate such knowledge with professional practice principles. Consequently, he wrote the first peer-reviewed journal article on interviewing children in custody evaluations. Not long afterward, he wrote the first peer-reviewed journal article on observing parent–child interactions within the context of such evaluations. Also, he wrote the first such journal article on child physical health and safety in custody evaluations. As an outgrowth of Dr. Hynan’s combined focus on professional practice and scientific knowledge, he identified that a psychological test used by a significant proportion of custody evaluators had a gender bias. He published an article in a prominent journal describing that gender bias and how it could have a very negative impact on women undergoing custody evaluations. Afterward, the test publisher changed aspects of the test construction and eliminated the gender bias. Dr. Hynan’s work has focused on advancing the field in other ways, also. For example, his article on others’ research regarding overnight visits for young children helped to shed light on the importance of prior patterns of parent–child and interparental relationships.
