fair visitation schedule

HI..I am going into court for temporary hearing on custody, child support this week. What is fair visitation for my kids father , who works weekends? i will have the kids every weekend..but how many days should he see them during the week?

That's something you and he will decide. Are there problems with substance or alcohol abuse? Is he a good dad? Depending on the situation, that should guide you somewhat in what you think is right.
From reading here in this forum I now understand that child support (either way--him paying you or vice versa) is set on the time the child(ren) is with each parent...and I saw where someone said 12 hours+ counted as a full day in their state (I think it was TN).
In MA, child support has nothing to do w/ the amount of time spent on visitation unless there is joint physical custody.
I'm the one from TN who spoke about the 12 hours being counted as a day.
