If he does want to go to court I will for sure advise him of this. I don't think it will make it there though. I truly think it will be too much an expense for him.
I don't think I have indicated that I am comfortable giving him more time - I am comfortable with keeping status quo. What I am comfortable with is giving him a better child support deal and giving more time in the summer, march break. Overall, this would increase his time marginally without affecting the school year arrangement. I am off the entire summer so I would be giving him time with his children when I am "off". Other posters, even Tayken who appears to have some legal connections, agreed that a judge won't think it fair that his proposed schedule asks for time on his days off only. This is to eliminate daycare - again tied to money.
To address what happened when we were together - I was the main caregiver. He worked overtime at a feverish pace because I was at home with the kids so he could be banking money. Even some days he was off they often had to attend daycare if he was coming off night shift. The arrangement now is a pretty close reflection of what occurred in the marriage. This is why he agreed to it and wanted to keep it right from the start.
I agree that there needs to be a dialogue. I am pretty hurt about all of this email bs he pulled last week and don't know what he is planning. My lawyer has told his that we are willing to negotiate so I think the ball is in his court.
