[quote=Anonymous]It sounds like you guys have close to 50-50 in terms of time actually.

I get why you are upset about the school issue but I can see it from both sides. If moving to the other school district will give kids extra stability in the form of as n extended family network, there's an argument it's in their best interest. The judge is not going to look at school quality unless there's a safety concern-- way too subjective.

The real issue here is that you and your ex couldn't agree on the school issue and forced it to the judge. That's your collective failure. I see from your perspective why you want them to stay in the current district but we're there issues with things like your ex affording housing there or continuity if childcare if the kids are going back and forth between two houses with working single parents and no family support? Did you try to work out a compromise or did you both dig your heels in?

Judges don't want to make decisions like that and their preference is always for the parents to figure it out while working together to come up with a satisfactory solution. But if you don't, yes there's the risk that the judge's resolution won't be exactly what you want

Next time try to work it out. This is the reality of divorce with kids.[/quote]
