[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m fascinated by all these “kids need equal time” arguments when in most married couples I know there is one parent that spends significantly more time with the kids but than the other (often mom, but sometimes dad). Why in divorce is equal suddenly the priority vs status quo?[/quote] Good question. I would THINK it's because in a marriage the spouses work as a team for whatever is best for the family. And unfortunately in divorce, there are probably feelings on animosity and territory when it comes to the kids. Sometimes there is even poisoning them with "Mommy/Daddy is bad because...". It's a tough situation and obviously one size does not fit all, which may be the main argument for this 50/50 thing; so each parent has an equal opportunity to parent.[/quote]
