[quote=Anonymous]A separation agreement is intended to be a stop-gap measure.  It is not intended to protect the legal interests of either party as strongly as either party may want them protected.  It is often not designed in a way that considers issues a year or two down the road.

For some people they find that once they are under a legally binding agreement they can get along and co-parent again without having to run to the agreement for exact details all the time - for these people it might work.  For people who are always having to live strictly by the terms of the agreement I would think a much more thought out agreement would be better going forward.

For instance there was a thread not to long ago about a parent who disagreed with an ex on taking the DC on a vacation that would result in missing school and they were arguing about it pretty heavily.  If you find you and your ex (or soon to be) cannot avoid this type of thing and work to agreeable solutions do not just use the separation agreement.  [/quote]
