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
Exchanges land on the same two days every week, which makes it easy to remember, and no one waits more than four nights. The trade is that which parent has the weekend flips each week, so weekend plans need a two-week memory.
