What South Carolina expects
South Carolina requires the court to consider a parenting plan from each parent and enumerates best-interest factors by statute.
Governing law: S.C. Code Ann. § 63-15-240.
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.
