Texas family code is designed to promote ongoing healthy relationships between parents and children. The Texas Family Law provides for a minimum visitation schedule that is presumed to be in the best interest of the child, which is called a "Standard Possession Schedule." This standard possession schedule allows the non-custodial parent the right to have significant periods of possession and access to the child.

When the child is the subject of a family law case, usually the issue of child support arises. Each parent has a duty to support their child and on some occasions, third parties may be ordered to support a child in a family law matter. Typically, the party with whom the child primarily resides will receive child support and is called a child support "obligee."
