Imagine it is a Tuesday evening. It is technically "Dad's Day." But Dad gets called away on an emergency business trip. In a standard custody agreement, he might call a babysitter. Visualize the scene: the child is at home with a stranger, eating pizza, while Mom sits alone in her house just three miles away, missing her child. The driveway at Mom's house is empty. The child is denied time with a parent simply because of the calendar. Jos Family Law wants you to see a better way. The "Right of First Refusal" fills that empty driveway.
When clients ask What is 50 50 custody, they often think only of the fixed schedule. But life is fluid. The Right of First Refusal acts like a safety net underneath the schedule. Visualize the same scenario with this clause in place. Dad gets the call for the business trip. Instead of calling the sitter, he is legally required to text Mom: "I have to leave for 24 hours. Do you want the kids?" Mom says yes. The child spends the night in their own bed at Mom's house instead of with a sitter.
This clause turns "forfeited time" into "bonus time." It paints a picture of a family where parents—not nannies—are the primary caregivers. It eliminates the feeling of exclusion. It prevents the scenario where a child is dropped off at a grandparent's house for a week while the other parent is perfectly available and willing to care for them. It changes the visual from a lonely parent to an engaged parent.
But visualize the threshold, too. You don't want to trigger this rule every time you go to the dentist. That creates a chaotic image of constantly shuffling the child back and forth. You need a clear boundary—like a "four-hour rule." If the absence is shorter than four hours, stick to the plan. If it’s longer, make the call. This clarity keeps the peace while maximizing the love.
