[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The only situation that I know of where this worked, the XH was willing to pay both CS and enough alimony that the XW didn’t have to work. He could travel freely and she didn’t have to worry about child care. When he was home, he took their son for the same number of nights he was gone. This went on from 3 until middle school. They were super amicable though. It never could have worked with any friction between them or if she’d had to work to support herself and the child. No employer is going to let you set your schedule to accommodate your ex’s work travel. [/quote] That's a bad idea given at some point the alimony/child support ends and then what happens to OP if she is out of the workforce in less he guarantees life long. I'd tell him that they need to start a schedule now. Have ex decide how he wants to do 50/50 and on those days he the primary parent. He need to do it all from laundry, cleaning, bathing, caretaking, making meals, etc.[/quote]
