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

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.
