When parents split custody 50/50, one may enforce homework while the other doesn't. You're still a full-time parent even on your off weeks. The fix: check in with your kids about what matters most, so both parents stay aligned on school and their growth.

What to do when you don't agree with how your co-parent is parenting your children. Let's say your co-parent doesn't agree with you that homework and good grades are important. While your children are at your co-parent's house, they're not studying for upcoming tests and they're not completing homework assignments. Well, even though you only have the children half of the time, you are a parent all of the time. So I highly recommend frequent check-ins with your children on the parenting matters That mean the most to you.
