So when the time comes to discuss visitation stuff and child support how I bring up the fact that I should pay less because I am putting my own career in jeopardy by continually being the kid shuttle person?
Why are you throwing in the towel on custody? If her long work hours preclude her being the primary caregiver, if you spend more time with them, shuttle them here and there, help them with homework, prepare their meals, etc ...then you are the primary caregiver.
How do you bring it up? Here's how:
1. "W, since I am the primary caregiver of our D's, I will not agree to less than 50/50 custody."
2. "As far as child support, with 50/50 custody...28% of the difference in our salaries is fair."
