[quote=Anonymous]Hi all- when my kids were born a few years ago, we had a ton of paperwork drawn up to protect our family. We did NOT, however, petition for joint legal and physical custody. Apparently that is increasingly recommended in VA where we live and for better or worse will continue to live while our house crawls out from underwater. Have you done this? What is the potential downside other than a judge refusing? Would that cause trouble down the line should I seek a second parent adoption if/when we move to a friendlier state? Would it allow me to add my kids to my insurance and my pension (I can't do either now and the unfairness of that burns)? We have various CYA legal docs that allow me to travel with them, take them to the doc, etc. would this be an improvement? Any thoughts or experiences gratefully accepted. [/quote]
