Can you go to court to just get a forced change in the residential schedule of your children? How likely is that to happen?
I'm fine with my ex and I having split custody (it's something we've informally agreed to) and decision making, but I don't feel my children are getting the best care with him. Currently we are a 50/50 schedule with lots of switches in the week. I'd like to propose he have them every other Thurs to Sun instead, but I don't think he'll willingly go for it. I absolutely wouldn't try for this if I thought my ex was meeting the children's needs properly, or the switches mid-week weren't taking a toll on them so much emotionally.
So what are my options? We're trying the medation thing right now, but both are very firm in our positions.
From what I've read here, unless my ex is killing the kids, it sounds like it would be hard to get full custody of them.
