The Best Interests of the Child

 

In all conservatorship cases, the primary consideration is the best interests of the child. Texas family law courts prioritize the physical, emotional, and psychological well-being of the child when determining conservatorship arrangements.

Factors considered include:

 

• – The child’s age, needs, and adjustment to their home, school, and community.
• – The physical and emotional well-being of each parent or guardian.
• – The ability of parents to cooperate and make joint decisions in the child’s best interests.
• – Any history of family violence, neglect, or abuse.
• – The child’s preference if they are of sufficient age and maturity to express their wishes.

 

 

Rights and Duties of Conservators

 

Conservators are granted specific rights and duties, which can include:

 

• – Right to make educational decisions: Determining the child’s school and educational path.
• – Right to make medical decisions: Authorizing medical treatment and care for the child.
• – Right to consent to surgery, medical treatment, and psychiatric treatment: Granting permission for specific medical procedures.
• – Right to manage the child’s estate: Handling the child’s property, assets, and financial matters.
• – Right to represent the child in legal matters: Making legal decisions on behalf of the child.
