Again, we use the convention—what the government has agreed to support and what children's entitlements are—to think about how best to understand what their best interests are. Children have rights to maintain relationships with both parents, unless it's against their best interests. There's nothing in the convention about equal time—shared parenting, yes. For some children, equal time might be in their best interests, but we would say that a case-by-case basis means not in every instance.
