11 year marriage. 9 year old daughter. I filed for divorce in January. We are still living together as he refuses to move out and I cannot afford to move out until there is a settlement.
I did 80% of the childcare in raising our daughter (at least). He was out of town frequently and rarely home on weekends.
Now he is saying he wants 50/50 for the joint custody arrangement. I have asked for 80/20 (80 for me).
I'm trying to get a feel for what experience people have had in WV with custody battles? Should I just give up because the judge is likely to go with him, or should I fight for the 80%--whcih I strongly believe will be best for her.
We both work full time, she has after school daycare.
