A child, two apartments
Nine out of ten children of divorced parents with the sole custody of the mother. Indeed, judges have the young mother, and by habit, as a general rule, lawyers advise their clients not to disrupt male, for a case. A custody battle is “an act of meaning,” said New York Supreme Court Justice Sybil Hart Kooper, “unless the woman is a prostitute and practice in front of their children or a chronic alcoholic, was drunk, or psychotic, threatens the children of life.
Now, a growing number of divorced parents go to the limit for a balanced solution on the issue, receives children: joint custody of both parents. Six fathers of Texas and a group bearing the name of equal rights for fathers have a class action suit against all judges of the court of the State, on the grounds that the denial of joint custody, violation of the principle of a fair trial. A decision in the case where, as the first of its kind to go before the courts, could change at any time. Oregon, Iowa, Wisconsin and North Carolina have laws authorizing joint custody, and a dozen other states, including New York, Michigan, California and Connecticut, consider requiring that all invoices, judges start with the adoption of joint custody.
Until the 1920’s, courts generally presumed that custody should go to the father as head of the family. So, how ideas about the crucial role of mother in the upbringing of children adopted, the courts turned to a presumption that the child belongs to the mother. True to joint custody now say that the bias in favour of mothers is obsolete sex roles: women should stay at home, fathers are poor care and, more generally, the desire to be free of children after divorce. Today, however, approximately 60% of divorced women to work outside the home, and the feminist movement has many men and encourage a greater role in the domestic market before. Says William Haddad, a political writer and co-author of custody joint book available Parent, “In the court, prevailing stereotypes. The court has not yet imagine, sharing roles. ”
Most judges still believe that the stability of a single house is vitally important: children should not be shuttled between parents, have demonstrated that they are not rightly so. Psychiatric Expertise is traditionally tend to agree. The book in 1973 and above the best interests of the child, Joseph Goldstein, Anna Freud and Albert J. Solnit, took the position clear that the parent with custody should have the right to deny visits by the noncustodial parent company because such visits could undermine the stability Child.
