[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can a family lawyer please weigh in here? I am so confused by this entire thread. I feel like the mom could just say to the court that she requests 50/50, which is the default. The judge isn't going to say, "welp, dad doesn't want any custody, so mom is ordered 100%." Right? Imagine if the genders were reversed and mom said she wanted nothing, and dad said he wanted 50/50. The judge would order 50/50, unless there were serious drug/abuse issues. [/quote] Dads don't abide by this. And what is the mom supposed to do when Dad doesn't show up? Just roll out of the house to go live your life and leave your kids unsupervised because it's "Dads time"? Fight and argue with the dad about how he needs to help more (maybe in ear shot of your kids?) and then send your kids with someone who doesn't want to be parenting and won't adequately take care of them?[/quote]
