How is technology used in co-parenting situations?

There are apps that help with communication between parties in family law cases or help them coordinate custody and visitation schedules. These apps can track communications about the child with functions such as:  

  • an electronic journal;
  • a message board;
  • a shared expense log; and
  • a child custody/visitation calendar.
