[Pa] 50/50 custody 45 minute commute

Coparent and I's order is a year old. He proposed 80(me)/20(him) and I agreed. After repeatingly asking me to drop his child support (its already $600+ a month lower than they ordered) he filed for 50/50. Our children are 5 & 7.

He lives with his parents about 45 minutes away. His work schedule is chaotic so his mother will be the one taking the kids to school and picking them up. She also does most of the parenting on his time. She does their morning routine as he leaves for work very early and does their bedtime routine as he goes to bed early.

He loves the children and is fun dad but otherwise has been pretty uninvolved. Now that he has filed for 50/50 he has stepped it up a little.

Does a 45 minute commute seem reasonable for young school age children?
