The super offensive Christmas cards post got me thinking.

My family is predominately Eastern Orthodox, a portion is Jewish. Most of my friends are Christian, a few are Jewish. At Christmas time, every single person gets the exact same Christmas card of my smiling children and fluffy dog in a sweater. When I get happy Hanukkah cards I have never thought twice and hang all the cards up on my handy dandy card holder.

Question for the legal eagles- according to the IRS which parent should claim the children on taxes:

Parents divorced last year after being separated two, dad has claimed both children every year since birth, mom just started working 3 years ago.
2 school age children.
Joint custody w/ 50/50 visitation Sun-Sun.
No mention of taxes in divorce decree.
Dad pays $500 in cs and provides insurance because of pay difference.

Asking for a friend.

Thanks ladies.
