[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP what is the alternative?[/quote]

One home during the week and school year.

Other home during some weekends and summer.

50 -50 is for the guilty parents. If the parents cared at all about the kids they wouldn't put them through 50-50.[/quote]

Not a good alternative. Why should one person do all the work of parenting during the school year and the other one has all the fun of time off with the kids?[/quote]

Why should a kid suffer because their parents are jerks?[/quote]

Exactly so if a parent doesn't want 50-50 the child should go with the other parent since that parent thinks it's better to have one home.  They can make the sacrifice.  Just having summers isn't great as you have to pay for camps/child care which is a bigger cost especially when you are also paying child support and you are still working so its not like you get any great time with them especially when its only 4-6 weeks.[/quote]
