If you think of the 15 years in front of you it will be impossible to solve this dilemma. So I recommend you think only about this year.

So if I understand this correctly... he wants you to cover the 23rd and the 29th (tentatively) AND ALSO your entire schedule? Is that accurate?

What is your aim in saying no to this? Just to see the original plan actually followed?

I'm not pushing back... just want to be sure I understand the issues.

My initial thought is... (given what you know about my parenting issues with my H) if you feel like you're being taken advantage of, get it set in writing. If he's not taking his 50%, then request a bigger share of child support, to compensate for the disparity in care. Then keep your D. But most likely you'll have to have a log of changes to document the disparity.
