Two nights with one parent, two with the other, then a three-night weekend that alternates. Over two weeks it comes out even. In Oklahoma this is written into a Plan for Custody, where time with a child is called visitation.

What Oklahoma expects

Oklahoma requires parents seeking joint custody to submit a written plan for the exercise of shared rights.

Governing law: 43 O.S. § 109.

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.
