[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My soon to be ex has been increasingly expected to travel for work. He's had around 4 work trips these last few months, with his last trip spanning 8 days. He is asking for 50/50 custody but I feel that if he is continuing to travel this much, it can't possibly be 50/50. Wondering how others navigate this when you have children in the picture. How to keep it fluid for them with changing care schedules? What should I have written into a divorce agreement? [/quote] If your agreement isn't final, you still have time to change it (I hope). Have you outlined the right of first refusal so that you are offered his custodial days when he travels? I'm in the same boat where my estranged DH travels and works late, yet wants 50/50. It's not realistic, obviously, but there is no dissuading him. I still haven't quite figured out how to best navigate it, so I'm here for tips too. [/quote] No, nothing is finalized. It helps to know there are others out there going through this because I'm feeling alone. I hope we learn something here. [/quote]
