Workshop 21: Voice of the Child: What Is It? How Is It Applied? Guidelines for Eliciting
With growing attention to the rights of the child, this workshop will explore the mechanisms of obtaining a child’s input into a parenting plan post-separation and divorce. Specific topics to be addressed include incorporating a child’s voice, how different jurisdictions consider the input of children of various ages and stages, specific techniques and considerations when soliciting children’s input, and assessing the quality of the data. Presenters will discuss the benefits and drawbacks and provide suggestions of potential means to mitigate risks.
