The 2-2-3 custody schedule, how the rotation works, and when it's the right fit
A visual breakdown of the 2-2-3 parenting schedule, the ages it fits best, its trade-offs, and court-ready language you can drop into a parenting plan.
The 2-2-3 schedule is the go-to 50/50 rotation for infants, toddlers, and young children. It keeps overnights with either parent short, so no child spends more than three nights away from mom or dad. It also asks a lot of the parents, three or four exchanges per week, careful gear handoffs, and steady communication. This guide walks through the mechanics, the developmental fit, the honest downsides, and the parenting-plan language courts expect.
