Yeah, I guess there is nothing absolutely dead wrong in swapping an occasional day.
My kids are 10 and 8 (I see I need to update my signature).
And I was trying to put myself in my kids's shoes: I would like to know in which bed I will be sleeping for the next few days and not have to change my routines.


then insist that there be no flexibility in their schedules absent a medical emergency and put that in writing as part of your Div agreement...


is that^^^ really what you want? I mean, divorce with kids their age will never be painless or super convenient. It is what it is.

But a rigid adherence to a schedule and never changing it even by one day, a day that gets "repaid" just does not come off as reasonable to me. Sorry, but there's something off about it.

No offense, okay? But do you have control issues? (What would your stbxw say if she were here?)

At this point I'm not sure the previous thread is needed for this question - if your divorce is only days away and if your question really boils down to this^^ one issue.

Am I missing something?
