What is sole custody?Sole custody means one parent has the primary responsibility for the child's upbringing. This parent makes key decisions regarding the child's welfare, education, and health. The non-custodial parent may have visitation rights but not decision-making authority without agreement from the custodial parent.
-
What is joint custody?Joint custody means both parents share responsibilities for their child. It includes joint physical custody, where the child lives with each parent for a period, and joint legal custody, where both parents share decision-making responsibilities. This arrangement requires cooperation and communication between the parents.
-
How is custody determined?Custody is determined by considering the best interests of the child. Factors may include the child's age, health, emotional ties with parents, parents' ability to care for the child, and the child's ties to home, school, and community. Courts aim to facilitate stability and continuity for the child.
-
Do children have a say in custody decisions?Children's preferences may be considered by the court, depending on their age and maturity level. While a child's opinion is taken into account, it is not the sole factor in deciding custody. The court prioritizes the child's best interests above all when making decisions.
