We seem to have an issue with access schedules and would like some opinions out there.
Heres some background.
1. Kids ages range from 4 to 9.
2. They go to a before and after daycare for 10 months of the year.
3. They go to a french speaking school and homework is in french. Monday to Thursday is mainly a 'school' routine days.
4. Friday to Sunday is a 'leisure' routine days
5. My spouse has two months off in the summer.
6. I work through the summer can can take off 2 weeks.
7. Typically we send them to daycamp for two weeks at the end of summer when she begins to go to work.
8. Going for Shared custody - 50/50.
Our goals -
1. Basically my spouse is wanting alternate weekends to allow both of us to enjoy 'leisure' time with the kids - year round.
2. With kids so young, we thought about a 4/3 day rotation but are having trouble working the alternate weekends into the equation to allow both spouses to have leisure time with kids.
3. To work towards a 1 week on/off schedule as kids get older.
4. To figure out how to schedule access during summer months - June 15 to Aug 15 while she is off during that period and I can take close to 2 weeks off in that period - leaving a month of trying to work out access with one parent off the other working -- possibly having daycamp or daycare during that period???
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
