I have a feeling my stbxw is going to fight for me only having my child every other weekend. More than likely because she will receive more in child support.

The current parenting schedule has my child with me 5 nights every other week, which has worked great. It has been like this for almost a year now.

I live within 15 minutes from her home, and have been punctual on dropping the child off off for school, and for exchanges. No issues.

No court or anything just yet, but litigation has begun. As of now, I have no idea what it is she is pursuing. I figured we’d just calculate the support and settle. I would imagine or at least think that she would want me to see my child more than EOW, and that she appreciates the free time to herself in the process.

The main issue in the complaint/divorce is custody and support, so that’s why I’m assuming this is the route she’s trying to take.

Any opinions? If I refuse to settle for just EOW visitation and go to court, would I have a shot at keeping my child the way we have verbally agreed to, and had been practicing the past year? I’d like to think the court would typically applaud 50/50, but my time with the child currently is more like 35% and hers 65%. Just wondering if there is anyone who had experienced this, and the likelihood of the court going along with the status quo and not want to interrupt the custody that has already been going on.
