[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mom is probably afraid to lose CS money. Offer her an extra $300/mo if DD is with you during the week. See what she says. [/quote]

As a mom or dad, would you give up custody of your child?[/quote]

As a parent, if it meant my child could do better in school, I would let my child live with the other parent during the school week.  I would try, instead to arrange a mid-week dinner and take weekends instead.

FWIW, I am in this situation - kids live with me full time because I am the stable one that makes sure they go to school, doctors and activities.  The other parent eats dinner with them a couple times a week and spends one weekend day with them.

Other parent agrees to it because they know it’s best, I don’t ask for more money, I’m very supportive of visitation and I never say the other parent is a bad parent because of it.[/quote]

You cannot say you would give up custody of your child as you are the one with full custody and weren't willing to make the sacrifice of having the child live with the other parent.  You have no concept of what its like to have your kids taken away.  Visitation isn't parenting.  You don't have the same relationship with your kids having visits.  [/quote]
