Divorce Custody

In the United States, the divorce custody laws are presided over by the individual states rather than the Federal government. Accordingly, all the fifty states and the District of Columbia have drafted their own set of laws.

The sex of the parent does not result in preference for a particular parent. The court aims at attaining the best interests of the child while determining the custody arrangements. In the past (till the 1960s and 1970s), a majority of states adhered to the 'tender years doctrine.' As per this, the mothers were automatically eligible for custody as long as they were fit.

The main options in case of child custody are 'sole custody with visitation rights' and 'joint custody.'
