[quote=Anonymous]Ideally the parents arrange it in a way that maximally benefits the kids. The problem is that many divorced parents have a lot of anger and resentment towards each other and cannot collaborate to go-parent. That is what turns the kids into chattel, not the 50-50 default. The default exists to try and guide parents to do the right thing, which is to share responsibility equitably and to ensure both parents are maintaining strong parental bonds. Also, if both parents consent, you can arrange it however you want (60-40, 90-10, whatever). 50-50 only gets imposed when parents can’t agree, because their legal rights to custody are equal. Don’t have kids with someone you can’t work custody out with.[/quote]
