[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]to all of the geniuses counseling divorce, what is this woman supposed to do when ExH has the kids during his 50% of the time and is too tired to take them to daycare, forgets to help with their homework, feeds them McDonalds all weekend, skips their sports practice because its too much of a pain for him, etc etc etc.  To the OP, I would say that if you can afford it and deal with another teenager besides your husband, maybe just get an au pair so you have somebody in the house and can just walk out the door when you need to in the morning.  I've done this for 11 years now and while not optimal, my husband is the father of my kids and he is not going to do drop offs or pick ups or any other child related necessity during the week.  The au pair has kept me sane, at least.  [/quote]

In this situation, I wouldn't be shooting for 50% time. I'd be shooting for every other weekend, given his disinterest. Then I'd be using the large amount of child support he would be paying to hire someone to do drop off.[/quote]
