On the first working day after the holidays - December 29, Minister of Justice Nadezhda Yordanova will organize a meeting with non-governmental organizations on the issue of shared parenting. The idea is to develop legislative changes to protect the rights of both children and parents after divorce.

Minister Yordanova has already talked about the issue with protesting citizens from the organization "Fathers for Responsible Parenting" and the Association for Child Development "Article 24". It turns out that no action has been taken for years to solve this painful problem affecting children and parents.
