I have no overnight stays by members of the opposit sex that are not related by blood or marriage when the childrn are present in my decree. So it can and is done, if more people stood up for their morals and held people actually accountable for their actions maybe there wouldnt be half the divorces going on.

The question would you sign this agreement if the roles were reversed is a very good one to ask yourself.

Have you thought about what kind of custody plans you would like to have in place? Think outside the box, every other weekend is not a parent its a big brother or sister. It will also alienate the ncp from the children, this is another problem in most cases. If you expect your stbx to be supportive of the children then they have to be significant in their lives; this is not done every other weekend. Our plan is week on week off, some have balked at such an idea but has been working for the past 10 months so until something breaks I aint fixing it.

College expenses?
Who will carry the children on their insurance?
Who will claim the kids on taxes?
Who will pay out of pocket medical and dental expenses?
Who will pay for school supplies and what does that cover?
Who will pay for activties outside of school and who gets to decide what they can and can't do?
Highly suggest every other year on the kids birthdays (see the above poster for why), in the event you are getting along fine with the ex you can always attend the parties otherwise its best to spell it out.
Mediate before litigate is pretty standard now and is infinately better for the children benifit being considered.

Just some ideas, there is nothing to far out there as long as you both agree.
