Unfortunately, domestic court is probably the worst system I've ever had the misfortune to work with....and much depends on whether the judge got laid the night before.
Having said that...I've seen custodies that are brilliantly worked out and so much is determined by the mother and father who really believe the child is not to blame for the breakdown of the marriage....so they keep their private quarrels away from the kids and everyone does their share.
On the other hand, I've seen humans act in ways that just make me shake my head....they should be ashamed of themselves...the mother who thinks she just has to date like a teenager to get another man...the father who doesn't stay involved....or fight when it's needed....the drug use, the blaming...it's nauseating to see so called adults act in this manner...
Not a fair system..but the divorces say an awful lot about the parents, too.
Who really speaks for the children? In too many cases, no one.
