[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree custody should be 50/50, if that is how childcare is split during the marriage[b]. But why should the parent, who has worked FT, and done 90 percent of the childcare and 100 percent of the household tasks during the marriage then lose the lion’s share of custody in the divorce?[/b] That parent is already at a disadvantage economically, as he or she has probably taken a lower-paying job in order to have the flexibility needed to be the default parent.[/quote] This. I'd actually laugh if most divorced dads earned 50 percent custody. They would be screwed. Even my husband who tries to split takes 50/50 can't manage and juggle the many things required to run a household and hold down a good job. [/quote]
