Petition Increase the number of nights required for "Shared Care" in Child Maintenance.

The Child Maintenance Service deems that 52 nights of contact per year is "sharing the care" of the children. This equates to 14% of all nights in a year. This is not quality time or sharing. It is insulting to resident parents. Increase the lowest threshold for "Shared Care" to 104 nights a year.
