[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In my experience judges weigh actual past and present circumstances more than one parents refusal to deny the actuality of his (continuing) work travel. The. Hold is young enough that any judge is going to consider historical precedent. Apologies as I read the OP days ago so if OP was working too was she both caregiving during sTBX travel and working? Or was she SAH? If SAH alimony and child support should allow her to be primary custodial parent for continuity for the child. Just because dad peaced out doesn’t mean the child’s entire routine needs to change and if OP has a good lawyer they’ll use his travel reimbursement or rewards statements to prove his hotel nights. They’ll show that mom was home. They’ll show that mom is the one who goes to teacher conferences and takes the kids to all sick visits and well visits. Was pretty easy from there to get primary custody amd joint decision making. That was great for me. Our routine continues and every other weekend I had to regroup and relax without some gross beast getting drunk and yelling at all of us. [/quote] Thanks for an actual description of how this can work out if women are not scared into being “flexible” ie sabatoging themselves from the get go. Judges are not fooled by men with “big careers” and SAHW who all of a sudden claim that they are going to be 50% time parents. I don’t know the actual facts of OP’s case so maybe she won’t be able to show the same things you did. But it is absurd to claim that her ex’s plan to travel frequently on his custody days is something she just has to accept. [/quote] OP isn't a SAHP and works. Many parents work and are still active and involved parents. It sounds like OP works a lot too and has a high income. They both need to work together for this child.[/quote]
