[quote]Just kinda looking for advice here. Currently my ex takes my youngest daughter (4) three weekends a month and has her Friday evening to Monday afternoon and he sees my older daughter (7) once a month by his choice cause he adopted her so he doesnt consider her fully his. my youngest will be starting school this year and my oldest is already in school.
He is seeking joint physical custody of only my youngest. We love an hour apart. How likely is he to get joint physical. It is causing issues emotionally with my oldest daughter because he doesnt see her as much as my youngest. I dont want them to be split anymore than they already are. Any advice??? [/quote]
I would make it clear that it is a package deal. He is going to have the same parenting time with both kids. If he doesn't take one, he doesn't take the other.
There isn't a judge that will order young children to have a different parenting plan unless you are talking about infants and an older child. But that is not your case.
