[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's worked for us so far - our daughter turns 3 in a couple of months.  We were never married, never lived together.  We get along well and tend to agree on parenting stuff.  We have joint custody, but I'm the primary, so I have our daughter 5 days a week.  We trade off holidays and we both take her on vacations.  We currently live about 10 miles apart and I got his opinions on the preschools I was considering; we took both our home locations into consideration.  We make all decisions together.  He got to pick the day of the week that he has her, and we switch back and forth as to who gets which weekend day/night with her.  She has a bedroom at each house and toys and clothes at each house.  It's working for us.  If he ever gets reassigned (he's toying with going back on active duty military status) or this stops working for us, we'll switch things up.[/quote]

So you do have primary physical custody and NOT joint physical custody (which is what I am considering). I understand joint legal is pretty standard. So what I am hearing from you is that primary physical custody is working for you. Thanks for sharing your experience.[/quote]
