Long story short I have a little boy who is 7 nearly. Since when me and his mum separated when he was 2 I have had my little boy 4 days in 10 and she has had him 6 days. The reason for this at the start is that I felt that he probably needed his mum more than me and also it meant I paid her CSA which I have done since then at £293 a month. This also helped her get a house etc. We never went through courts we just sorted it ourselves.
Now hes 7 and grown up and enjoys his time with me I dont see why we cant do 5 and 5 instead of 6 and 4. he also seems happy with this too.
Of note she's also had some domestics with her new partner (who she has a child with) and the police got involved and social services. Another reason why I want to spend that bit more time with him.
Where do I start with this. She's not keen on the idea for obvious reasons and doesn't want to loose her £290 a month but as far as im concerned there is not one negative reason to make it 5 and 5 instead of the 4 with me 6 with her.
As far as im concerned shared custody is the best for him.
Neither of us would want to go to court, we never did before.
