Long time lurker here. Just wanted to share that after a long legal battle my ex and I finally agreed to true 50/50 custody. My lawyer said most cases don't end this way but we both realized fighting was hurting the kids more than anything. We have a parenting app now (OurFamilyWizard) and honestly it's changed everything. We're not friends but we can communicate about the kids without it turning into WW3. If you're in the thick of it right now, hang in there.

Dude this is awesome. 18 months is brutal but sounds like it was worth the fight. What was the biggest sticking point in your case if you don't mind me asking?

Congrats man, that's huge. Took me about two years to get to 50/50 with my two and it was worth every penny spent on lawyers. How are the kids handling the new arrangement?

Welcome to the club! Now the real work begins. Packing bags, coordinating schedules, and trying to remember which house has the permission slips. But totally worth it.

That's a real victory. Takes a lot of work to get both sides to agree on anything. Enjoy those extra days with your kids.
