[quote=Anonymous]Child of 50/50 custody here (before it was cool). You can try 2-2-5, I know it's popular, but as a kid, I found that fewer switches was better for me. At that age, I was doing week/week (switching Sunday nights). By middle school, I was pushing for even longer stretches. Just wanted to weigh in on the after school thing - I was in a similar boat as a kid, and I took the bus to my mom's every day after school since she got home at 5 and my dad picked me up on his way home at 6 during his weeks. I had a babysitter at moms until 5, and it made perfect sense to me when I was little, silly to pay a sitter for even longer, and hard to get a sitter who will work at two different locations and keep track of your custody schedule. BUT I pushed really hard to be able to stay at my dad's by myself until 6, and I think finally won that battle in 3rd grade. It's probably later these days, but that's probably where you'll land long term. [/quote]
