Lea, that sounds like a much better system IMO!

It sounds like you are what I call the "executive parent"...like I am. If we worked in a corporation, we'd earn 50%-double the amount of what our husbands would because we are not only doing the parenting work but 95% of the managerial/executive tasks related to parenting. Unfortunately, not only is the "executive parent"'s role rarely acknowledged, but often the other parent isn't really even familiar with the job description! And yet another thing that isn't really taken into account in standard custody/child support calculations in my jurisdiction I believe.
