Custody of Children After Divorce
The process of Divorce is indeed painful. And if the misery of a prolonged battle for custody and
monetary settlements are added to it then it is almost excruciating. Children from such a marriage
are usually seen to be laboring under considerable emotional stress already and a custody battle
is agonizing for them as well.
In some cases though it is imperative to discuss the question of child custody before the couple
legally separate. The question of custody being an almost predominant issue in divorce suits you
would be wise to update yourself about the nitty-gritty‘s of the issue so that you can make a well informed decision.
Let us start from the basics. ‘Child custody‘ is also referred to as ‘guardianship‘ both of which are
part legal terminology. The terms convey the sense of a lawful and realistic bond between
parents and their children whereby the parents are required to look after the children and can
decide on important questions on the children‘s behalf.
Child Custody Cases
The question of Child Custody arises when parents decide to put an end to their relationship with each other through divorce or annulment. Child custody refers to the legal and practical right over the child. Most countries follow the legalities put forward by the United Nations Convention on the Rights of a Child.
While trying to win child custody parents make various claims regarding themselves and allegations against their spouses/partners. False accusations of child sexual abuse financial and educational incompetency made by parents against each other are common.
Child Custody Evaluation
The legal process of Child Custody can be quite harrowing. Parents often lose their logic regarding this issue while coping with separation from their spouse/partner. In order to bring back a level of objectivity in the process child custody cases are often counseled by psychologists.
There are mainly two types of child custody:
Sole custody - One parent inherits complete guardianship of the child.
Joint custody - Both parents share the guardianship of the child as per the verdict of the legal proceeding.
Getting Ready for Child Custody Trials
This is perhaps the most unpleasant part of divorce proceedings. Both you and your spouse fight tooth and nail to get child custody each believing that he/she will provide for a secure future for the child and take care of the child‘s needs. What follows is a rigorous trial which you must get prepared for if you have the best interests of your child at heart.
In these times it is no longer taken for granted that the mother shall be provided with the custody as has been the norm for quite some time. Instead the judges lay weight on which parent can provide for both emotional and physiological development of the child. It depends on the environment you will be able to offer the child.
Thoughts on Father‘s Rights in Child Custody Battles
Why do the courts seem to always favor the mother in a divorce when considering child custody? Is it that this is a throwback view from the days when the mother was a stay-at-home mother and therefore had nothing to do but watch and nurture the children? Will the court system ever join the twenty-first century in regards to child custody?
The rights of fathers has increased and changed for the better over time but there is still a long way to go before there is real parity between mother‘s and father‘s rights. Women still tend to win in the custody battleground. Of course the winners should be the children. Not everyone will be happy in these situations nor will they feel they have been treated fairly as to visitation custody or support payments.
Mother‘s Rights and Child Custody
The separation of the parents upon divorce has led to serious contestations regarding the custody of the child. In the beginning of the 20th century the father was invariably given the custody of the child. This practice has changed as the courts recognized the role of the mother as the primary caregiver of the family.
Leaving the child entirely to the mother or the father not only affects the child in a serious way but also burdens the parent who has to take provide for the child. In the recent years the courts have tried to lay more emphasis on the needs and interests of the child rather than the rights of the father or the mother.
The child is free to go to his/her father or mother while they are in the custody of either of them. The responsibilities are also not given entirely to one parent but are shared by both the parents.
Divorce Mediation for Child Custody
A good way to tackle the problems of divorce which is increasing rapidly is mediation. Mediation encourages parental cooperation over matters regarding child custody and visitation rights. A mediator is appointed by the court who tries to find a middle ground between the two parents keeping in mind the interest of the children.
The major part of the mediation takes place between the two parents with the mediator as a neutral member. His job is to make sure that the children are represented in the decisions regarding visitation among many others. Sometimes matters of school doctor‘s appointments and events can be settled during these sessions.
Types of Child Custody Arrangements
The rate of divorce has been increasing rapidly in the last couple of years. Parents going through a divorce are aware of the fact that custody arrangements need to be made for the children. The judge normally determines the custody arrangements on the basis of factors like the age of the child his emotional bond with the parents and the capability of the parent to provide for the child and so on.
Based on these factors and many more the judge makes the arrangements for child custody. The following is a discussion on types of child custody arrangements and how they work. Two types of child custody are the physical custody and the legal custody.
Physical custody simply means that the child will live with the parent.
Legal custody means that the parent has the right to make the decisions regarding the child for example medical and educational decisions.
This custody can be shared with the child living with one parent for one half of the year and with he other parent for the rest of the year.
Child Custody Papers
While filing child custody papers you should take care of many factors. There are two ways of filing the child custody papers either you can file it in proper by yourself or you can choose to retain a family law attorney to represent you and file the child custody papers on your behalf.
There will be a number of local rules and procedures for filing your documents and should stick to these rules and procedures. If you choose to represent yourself you will have to take the responsibility to know the procedures and timelines related to your paperwork and court appearances.

How Would You Preserve the Best Interest of Your Child?
How About a Joint Custody?
The phrase "in the child‘s best interest" is widely used in the family court in child custody proceedings. But it is used in many arbitrary senses by the family court or judges. Also its meaning is slightly vague. The child custody law differs from state to state thus there is no uniform legal yardstick which determines what would be best for the child.
Some states make provision and insist on joint custody of the child while others do not. It is being found that some states are amending the existing laws and adopting a preference for joint custody while the others are amending the law to provide for joint custody only if the couple agrees to it.
