NOTE: This communication is not intended as and should not be interpreted as legal advice. Rather, it is intended solely as a general discussion of legal principles. You should not rely on or take action based on this communication without first presenting ALL relevant details to a competent attorney in your jurisdiction and then receiving the attorney's individualized advice for you. By reading the "Response" to your question or comment, you agree that the opinion expressed is not intended to, nor does it, create any attorney-client relationship, nor does it constitute legal advice to any person reviewing such information, nor will it be considered an attorney-client privileged communication. If you do not agree, then you are instructed to stop here, and do not read any further.

Of course...that is a matter of personal values and not governed by the State of Florida. Care should be given to the concerns of your former spouse in regards to minor children living in a household of two unmarried persons, if applicable, otherwise this issue might arise at some point in the future if your spouse wants to challenge your position as primary residential parent.

I strongly suggest that you consult with a family attorney in your area who can answer any specific questions you may have.
