[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP back again - I ramped up up to 80% when I found out he was cheating so I have a leg to stand on career-wise when the divorce is final. He wants every other weekend and once a week dinner. It's sad.

I would typically hire childcare but it's hard to find someone willing to come into a house with a first responder.[/quote]

I don't think that is sad. If he doesn't want them, then you get them more.  That's what I'd want, but he needs to compensate you by giving you more spousal support so you don't have to work as much.[/quote]
It is sad. It’s sad for the children. Pp you are looking at it from your point of view, not theirs. 
OP, can you move out? You can’t make him leave if it’s house too, but can you leave?[/quote]

I agree it's sad for the kids, but I would much rather have them with me 80% of the time, than with me only 50% and with a babysitter the other half.  If only wants them 20%, wouldn't you rather have them 80%?  Otherwise it becomes 50% you, 20% him and 30% babysitter.  That seems much worse.  You can't make him be a more involved father, but you can provide a loving home with their mother.[/quote]
