[quote=Anonymous]My daughter was 4.5 (and my son 18 months) when we separated and we had them sleep at the house with me during the week but her dad would pick her up 1-2 times a week and have dinner with them. I'd usually go out, so he'd bring them to the house and do the bedtime routine with them. Then he had alternate weekends where they stayed with him. Over time, as it became clear we were divorcing, and I got tired of being out of the house and having him in the house, they started doing one overnight a week with him (as well as the alternate weekends. It's not 50-50 (I get 9 nights to his 5 every 2 weeks) but we both agreed that the additional stability of them staying more in the familiar house was good at this age. Also, his place is very small. We'll likely readjust as they get older. I would not split every weekend-that means you never get to have a weekend away (with or without the kids). [/quote]
