WELCOME

For too long children of separated parents have tolerated being switched between the homes of parents. The need for children to have both parents in their lives is a proven fact.

Children of separated parents have two homes, living here or there, or living here and visiting there. Rather than Parents getting custody of the kids, isn't it time for the children to get custody of the parents, with each parent living with them for three weeks, than switching?

Here is a full explanation of Bird Nest Custody from:
http://www.duhaime.org/LegalDictionary/B/BirdsNestCustody.aspx

It’s a form of access or custody where the children stay in the former family residence. The children simply live at "home" and the separated or divorced parents take turns living with them, but never at the same time.

The core element of this arrangement is that each parent maintains a separate residence where they live when it is not their turn at the "Bird's Nest". When one parent arrives for his/her designated time, the other vacates, so as to minimize or eliminate the presence of both at the same time.

At times, Bird Nest access can be coupled with specified access with the other parent say, for example, for dinner one night a week.

Sometimes, this form of access or custody will end when the youngest child reaches the age of majority at which time, one parent either buys the other out of their interest, if any, in the former family residence, or it is sold and the proceeds divided pursuant to the matrimonial property regime or separation agreement.

This is the form of custody Rocker Ted Nugent had. So, so, let's exchange pieces of mind on the matter.
