[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP,
Sometimes splits during the school week work better for pickup, right from school instead of pickup or dropff from home sweet home, it takes the sting out of the transition. 4/3 works great for a number of families I know, including mine. As for custody, in DC it's really, really hard for mothers to get custody if the dad wants joint, Maryland, too. I didn't realize you were VA. Of course do what you thinks best! Your DD will be fine, that's the important thing to remember.[/quote]

It is such a hard decision. Thanks again for sharing your opinion and helping me clarify things. If you get a chance - will you please remind me again what your 4/3 arrangement is?

I just spoke to my collaborative lawyer - she affirmed that in the past 21 years (and 32 for the other lawyer) - the FFX county court has never ordered joint custody. However, she put the cost up to 50K to 80K - I nearly got a heart attack. I wonder if anyone here has gone through contested custody and know how much it would end up costing.[/quote]
