Could I Please ask how far apart the 2 of you live? Everything sounds pretty fair to me, except that every 2 weeks this child is going to be uprooted from it's home. Have you thought about every 6 months instead? Then if you are close enough, you can do weekend visit on the time the mother has the child, and the mother could do weekend visit during the 6 months you have the child. Uprooting a child every week or every 2 weeks, just isn't fair to the child, they would just start to relax and get comfy and it would be time to leave again. Just something for you to think about, otherwise, your offer sounds pretty fair.

Joint Custody Offier FAIR?
If anyone has time to read this offer I am making to the mother of my child. THANK YOU! We were never married & only together for a brief time after his birth. I am trying to avoid a court battle & hoped she would just agree, but slim to none that will happen. I am seeking 50/50 3yr old
Sunday at 6pm and to end the following Sunday at 6pm. Bi-weekly calender schedule. I feel this placement schedule is fair and of benefit to ** as he will be able to spend an equal amount of quality time between both parents. Having a structured placement schedule is a crucial attempt not to confuse / & make him wonder where he will be and when.
Since we will (HOPEFULLY) each have ** 50%, requesting a NO CHILD SUPPORT order. This means, we are both financially responsible for ** needs, welfare & expenses during the time that he at each other’s home. Because our monthly incomes/expenses are relatively close additional child support should be an issue. mom told me via phone she didn't want the child support anyways
Mom to will remain as Primary ins holder. Am offering to pay ½ of the ins rate & 50% of unpaid med bills
It would be of benefit if both parents would live in the same city but since at this time we do not we can re-evaluate our situations in 2yrs/5 years old in time for school to
While in my care there will be no day care expenses incurred. At this time there is no need for outside child care. Any daycare exps mom will incur will be paid for entirely by her

The schedule would be for me to get ** at 6pm sunday night for 1 week and then the ending sunday his mother would get him for the week. This works out very well for my g/f's kids as it's the same schedule she has. Her youngest son was 4 when they started the bi-weekly where as my son is 3. She spent as much quality time during that week and by the weekend she was encouraging her kids how much fun they were going to have with their dad the following week to get them excited to go.
There is about 100 miles in distance. We meet 1/2 way.
I really am not interested in the option you suggested of the 6 months and I know that is not something she would be interested in.
Thank you for your comments

Being the age of you child, this should work for now, but when schoolage comes around it would have to be revisited, but as long as the 2 of you are happy about it and it works for you, then go for it! One more bit of advice, if you and mom could draw something up (like your letter above) stating the visitation and both of you sign in and get in notorized. Good luck to you both.
