[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m married, but I would love to be a little bit divorced as far as custody.  [b]Wouldn’t it be amazing to just know, say, that you have every Wednesday and Thursday evening free?[/b]  You could schedule haircuts or take meetings late or go to happy hour or plan to get things done and know there was a time available to do it.

Divorce is hard, and I don’t envy anyone who has gone through it, but I would love to have regular, predictable, uninterrupted time away from my children.[/quote]

So, why don't you just...do that?

I do a competitive sport and one of the days on which I practice is Thursdays, so every Thursday I work until it's time to leave and then I go do my sport and when I come home the kids are already asleep.

My husband doesn't have a regular thing he does like this but he does go to dinner once a month with a group of friends so he basically works until he leaves and then gets home when we're all asleep.

So, plan some time that you have that's for you. Pick a day during the week and have your husband do 100% of the kid stuff that day. Then you give him a day for the same. [/quote]
