Child custody involves complex family issues
Child custody may include both legal and physical custody, with the courts making decisions based on the child's education, healthcare, religious activities, extracurricular activities and more. Each family is unique and has a different situation, and you may decide to engage in sole, primary, joint or split custody. This depends on a number of factors, including:
- Parents' wishes
- Child's wishes
- Current and future needs of the child
- Ability of parents to care for the child
- Home stability
- Parents' plans for the child
