I can't answer. For exchanges when dd is going back and forth we do neither, she gets dropped off at school on Friday by one parent, picked up by the other. I guess this could be called meeting half way, since it is in between our houses. Other exchanges (when one of us gets dd for a few hours on our 'off' week) we either meet half way or one of us drives all the way, with the person who has dd being responsible to 'return' her to the other parent (that might mean driving all the way unless it's convenient for the other parent to meet half way).

I choose the 'other' as well. AHL is such an AHL that the only option for me and son was supervised visitation. And that has been fast decreasing from his chosen beginning rate of once per month since January. AHL also refuses to pay any kind of support for the child, figuring if he can't have his way (my supporting him financially, my taking care of him physically, my complete submission) then his conditional love for his child ceases.

It's whatever works best for us both. Sometimes I pick them up at his place, other times he brings them to me. Yesterday, for instance, for the 4th of July celebration, he took them to my mom's place where I met up with them.

I pick mine up after work on my way home and he picks them up and drops them off depending on whose turn it is to have them. We live in the same neighborhood so to speak so now tht it's warm the kids ride their bikes back and forth too.

well, my ex comes here to pick them up then he drops them off too.


I appreciate that SO MUCH since XH lives in the city of Buffalo. He works halfway between here and his house so it works out.
