Twenty-Fifth Judicial District – Yamhill Circuit 
Court Effective February 1, 2026 
(d) "Early Adolescents" are defined as children ages 11 to 13 years old; early adolescents are much more
focused on their friends and extracurricular activities. They often want to have a say in their living
arrangement and parents should listen carefully and consider their views. However, it is important to
be clear that it is the parents who will make the final decision about the living arrangement.
(e) “Teenagers” are defined as children ages 14 to 18 years old; teenagers become increasingly
independent and may want to have their parenting plan revised to meet their needs. A parenting plan
should not arbitrarily prevent them from being involved with acti vities, after school jobs or friends.
Many teens want to have a primary home where they know they can be contacted and parents may
want to consider this.
(f) “Custodial Parent” refers to the parent awarded sole custody.
(g) “Non-custodial Parent” refers to the parent who is not the custodial parent as defined above.
(h) “Joint Custody” is a form of legal custody providing that the parents have shared authority to make all major
decisions concerning the child. Parents who agree on joint custody could, for example, decide that the child
will live with one parent for more time than with the other parent. However, if they did so, both parents would
still have to agree on significant decisions affecting the child. IF PARENTS DO NOT AGREE ON JOINT
CUSTODY AND HOW JOINT CUSTODY ARRANGEMENTS WILL WORK, THE COURT CANNOT
ORDER JOINT CUSTODY.
