The kids are in school either 2 or 3 days a week. The custody is kinda screwy... we have them 7 of 14 days, but it’s weekend, then exchange Sunday night, then exchange on Tuesday and then again on Friday. You’re quite right though, dh had a really hard time finding a quality school that would do every other week. This opened more childcare possibilities up for the kids at least
I think it’s a pretty common custody split in our county and why they are willing to work with us. I love their school, pricey as it is. I get little pics and texts of the kids all day and know what they are, how long they napped, everything. Worth it!
But again, I think it’s really hard for a normal middle class family to pay for things like decent daycare AND save for college. I’m glad financing options are there so anyone determined can get the education they want.
