What Kansas expects
Kansas expects a parenting plan with every custody request and presumes an agreed plan is in the child's best interest.
Governing law: K.S.A. § 23-3213.
The honest trade-off
The simplest 50/50 schedule to run and the easiest to explain to a child — but a week is a long time away from a parent for a young child, and one forgotten backpack can strand a school project for seven days. Most plans using it add a midweek dinner or call with the other parent.
