What Connecticut expects
Connecticut requires a parenting plan in contested custody matters; joint legal custody is common where parents communicate.
Governing law: Conn. Gen. Stat. § 46b-56.
The honest trade-off
No long gap between seeing either parent, which is why it's the most common 50/50 schedule for little kids. The cost is exchanges — six a fortnight, roughly double most other schedules — so it only works when handoffs are calm and the drive is short.
