Every Other Weekend Custody: Time Share and When It Fits

Every other weekend (often Friday–Sunday) is a common primary-custody pattern. Understand the ~80/20 overnight math.

Every other weekend schedules typically place the child with the non-primary parent on alternating Friday–Sunday overnights (definitions vary by order). Overnight share often lands near 14–20% for that parent depending on holidays and midweek dinners.

Model your start date with the EOW schedule generator and convert nights to % with the parenting time calculator.
