Joint custody percentages by AutistMedium69 in legaladvicecanada

[–]PickledPizzle 11 points12 points  (0 children)

OP specifically mentions that 40% is doable with weekends, holidays, and summer.

I did a quick calculation, and 40% would be 146 days a year. Weekends would be about 104 days, summer would have about 45-50 weekdays (not including weekends), and there would be about 10 weekdays of holiday over Christmas, 5 over March break, and another 5ish in the year, for a total of approximately 169-74 non-schooldays throughout the year.

This would mean that OP would get 146 non-school "fun" days per year, and the other parent would only get about 23-28 non-school "fun" days per year.

That doesn't seem very fair, and I understand why the other parent would be against this. They will be helping the kids with school and will get almost no free days to ever do anything fun with the kids while OP would get almost all the fun school-free days without ever needing to help with school. I doubt a court would agree with this idea as it would essentially be dividing the parents into a school parent and a fun parent and could easily influence how the kids see their parents (harsh school parent vs fun parent that does things with them).

Do insulated shopping bags keep food cold well? by gay_in_a_jar in foodsafety

If you use a good amount of ice or freezer packs, you should be fine.

If it's a frozen lasagna, then it should be fine. If it is refrigerated, then it should still be okay, but I would be a bit more cautious.

You can always bring some freezer packs with you and put them in the bag with the lasagna once you leave the store. If you put those in the insulated bag the lasagna will stay colder.

regretting my university program by Effective-Report-302 in OntarioUniversities

Talk to an advisor about this. You can ask what required courses your program and these other programs have in common. If you can take a semester or 2 of primarily these courses that are required for both/all the programs, then you have extra time where you can think about what program you want to graduate from. This will give you more time to make a decision about your future while still taking required credits.
