[quote=Anonymous]X and I have this unofficial arrangement. If either of us travels where it requires an overnight stay somewhere other than the primary residence, we tell the other and well in advance. Not for approval if it's on that parent's weekend but more as a FYI. We each know where the other one is, provide FULL access to the kids if and when needed, and generally don't keep things from each other when it comes to the kids. So, to answer your question, no I don't think it is an unreasonable expectation. If I text, he responds, and vice versa. The key is that we don't abuse it and give each other space. For example....X is taking the kids out of town this weekend. He ran the date by me to make sure it was okay weeks in advance, we coordinated about things at my house that the kids might want, he borrowed a suitcase and iPads, I'm helping to 'prep' the kids by explaining the schedule when X picks them up, etc. [/quote]
