Hi BeClem. As you say, what's being proposed doesn't sound like a great outcome for you. No guarantees of even having your kids stay with you overnight even. I can see why you want to counter this.

The only comment I would make is that what's being proposed may not be your W's fantasy entirely. I think L's encourage people to 'go for' absolutely everything they want in the first instance - then it gets 'whittled down' to something more acceptable to both parties.

In a sensible world, the 'first draft' would be much more realistic....but it doesn't seem to work like this. Cynical me says it's all about L's making money. The further from acceptable the agreement is, the more legal to-ing and fro-ing there is likely to be...

Good luck with things my friend - you're doing really well xx
