The ''Divorce Act'' talks about the care of children in terms of ''custody'' and ''access''. Custody is about the right to have the child with you and the right to make decisions about how the child is cared for and raised. Access is about the child's schedule of time with his or her parents. A parent who has access but doesn't have custody is still entitled to have information about the health, education and wellbeing of the child.
