What Indiana expects
Indiana's Parenting Time Guidelines are the default baseline statewide — plans are usually written as the Guidelines plus agreed variations, so name the Guidelines explicitly.
Governing law: Ind. Code § 31-17-2-8; Indiana Parenting Time Guidelines.
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.
