Concept of physical custody• Sari Friedman reviews says that physical custody is when someone has the right over the physical aspect of the child which means when he lives with both the parents. We have few types of physical custody: one is when the child lives with both the parents; the second is named sole or primary physical custody, when the child lives with one of the parents (the "custodial" parent).
Concept of Legal custody
• Legal custody is when both or one parent have the legal right and responsibility to make decisions about the child's upbringing says Sari Friedman reviews. There are two types of legal custody: joint custody or sole custody. Typically the courts grant joint legal custody for the parents, says Sari Friedman reviews, but it depends on the circumstances.
What sole custody is?• The sole custody means that one of the parents have the full responsibility
of the child, physical, legal or both. Sari Friedman reviews says that normally courts only award sole physical custody to a parent if the other one is considered unfit. Most cases of unfit parenting happen because of alcohol or drug dependency or charges of child abuse or neglect.
What joint custody means?
• Joint custody means that both parents have the custody of the child in a physical, legal or both matters. Sari Friedman reviews says that it is also called shared custody.
What the court normally does?
• Sari Friedman reviews says that the courts try to keep the most of the contact between the parents and the children allowing supervised visitation which means that the sole custody is only given when
negligence or child abuse is proved.
The case of joint legal custody
• Sari Friedman reviews points out that there another way that custody can be granted. One way is when one parent loses the physical custody but maintains the legal one, which legally means that all the raising decisions will be done by both parents but only one will have the child. This decision generally comes with visitation rights but depends on the agreement.
Pros and Cons of Joint Custody• Sari Friedman reviews analyses that in a joint custody agreement there are
schedules to be follow by both the parents. It can be organized by the parents themselves or imposed by the court. The most common agreements are when the children spend weeks or months between the parent's house, when children spends weekends and holidays with one and weekdays with the other parent and when the child does not change house but the parents do, taking turns in the family home.
Sari Friedman reviews critics the "Best Interest" Rule
• It is believed that every decision should be in the best interest, happiness, security of the child and family unity. Sari Friedman reviews critics the rule for the deficits in the definition, the rule can’t be seriously determinate as it is vague and tends to cause or increase the conflict amongst parents instead of promoting cooperation.
