What Wyoming expects

Wyoming's distances make transportation and exchange-point terms unusually load-bearing; courts consider the geographic distance between homes directly.

Governing law: Wyo. Stat. § 20-2-201.

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.
