Oh, so what your friend is planning is ... "Well, it's inconvenient for me to have any part in raising my child at this time, so he can stay with his dad, but when I feel like I'm "ready" I can walk in and demand possession of him any time I want." Shame of it is that the courts may well agree with such a thing, since being the mommy is 9/10 of the custody law.

Yeah. It's criticism. Flat out. Unconstructive, if the meaning of that word is "doesn't solve the problem to my girlfriend's satisfaction."

And I'm not working from any illusions regarding dad's effectiveness as a parent at this point. He is, however, there. Any opinions you have of him are colored by your prior relationship.
