Well folks, my battle is over...my marriage lost and divorce is looming. Now my biggest concern is that we set up the most beneficial (to our children) visitation schedule. We have a 4 year old boy (going to be 5 in October) and a 3 1/2 year old girl. They are close to both of us, and we have been doing a 2 day rotation. This is getting cumbersome, and we know we will have to agree on a long term schedule. It breaks my heart to put my two beautiful children in this position, but there is no other choice. Does anyone have any advice or suggestions for child visitation? Any input is appreciated.

I don't know what the best solution is but make sure you get it in writing. I am struggling now with the issue as x won't give me times of pickup/drop off. I am so angry right now I can't give you a sane answer.

Why don't you try 5 days on and 5 days off. This way you have a weekend off and a weekend where you have the kids. Maybe Weds-Sun, then she takes the next five days and then you take the next five days. This way the children can kindof settle in for 5 days instead of packing off everyday 2 days. How are your kids taking it? Does your little one understand?
