I am new to this bit as only just separated from XH.
We are both keen, him more than me, for shared custody and for the last 3 months, have been doing it as they are with me in the week and him at the weekend.
This was my choice as I am very organised and can run the childrens activities, school etc efficiently, whilst he is great fun, but chaotic and I wanted the DC's to go to school, calm, in the right uniform, bathed, and as my DS1 says, to the correct school!
However, I am beginning to realise that I don't get much weekend/ relax time with them and that is essential also. However, by asking for more relax time, he will need more school time and the thought of that would send us all a bit doolally (?).
Just wondered if there were any success stories out there of good shared custody.
