[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To me, an involved dad is someone who shares parenting equally. Now, I realize in some cases, there may be a SAHM, but in cases where both people work full time, it should be equally shared. Otherwise that's not an "involved dad". In most cases of two working parents that I know, the mom is doing the lion's share of child care, emotional labor, etc. And this is true for the moms who I know that are teachers and writers but also physician specialists, big law attorneys, investment bankers, etc. The moms know what's going on at school, who the friends are, what class they need tutoring in.... whatever. I know people are going to come on here saying that their marriage is not like that. Which is great for you. But in my circle of upper income, highly educated friends living in a large city, that's absolutely the case in 90% of the couples. Which is why I question the dad's involvement. And maybe think the judge is just continuing what's been the status quo arrangement from day 0. And FWIW, in my large city (not DC), courts are definitely moving away from 50-50. Two of my friends got divorced in 2018 and both have similar arrangements to OP. Noone had an at fault divorce. [/quote]
