JOINT custody isn't about "sharing."  It's about rendering children possessions and splitting them down the middle to "share" in the sense of halving.

It's about operating separate automonous households that do NOT have to confer, because EACH can do whatever the heck it wants to, consistent or not, approved by the other parent or not.  

Joint custody is not two homes. It's NO home. Children are entitled to the stability and security of having a real home.
