Shamelessly posting for traffic but also genuinely interested in people's views as to if I am being precious.
H and I are splitting. We have 3 dc's, 5, 3 and 2. H is trying to insist on a 50/50 time split for the kids. Basically week on/ week off plus half the holidays.
I think given their ages a 50/50 split like that would be horribly unsettling for them and far too long away from their primary attachment- me.
Obviously I have skin in the game as I hate the idea of not seeing them for a whole 7 days and I am genuinely trying to be objective.
He has been a relatively uninvolved father but has been better lately now that the kids are leaving what he calls the annoying baby stage. That said he is by no means their emotional goto guy and is only selectively involved in the organisation of their lives.
I would be really interested to know others experience of a 50/50 split. If it works for them and if so, at what age they began it.
