Week on/Week off:

Each parent receives a 7-day stretch of placement at a time, including overnights. This is usually done with older children, not younger children. The start of the placement period / exchange could be any day, as long as it is consistent.  For example, it could happen in relation to Monday mornings (tied to school/work).  However, some families prefer Sunday p.m. exchanges.
