What does full custody mean in Kentucky?
Sole custody is where one parent is granted custody of the children and will be the sole decision maker for the children. They will decide where they live, what doctor to see, what school to attend, etc.
How can a custodial parent get full custody?
Full custody is only granted if the court determines that the arrangement conforms to the child’s best interest standard. That is, full custody is not granted simply because one parent requests it. Instead, full custody is only granted if the court determines that it will truly benefit the child.
How often do fathers win custody?
Nationwide, a father is likely to receive about 35% of child custody time.
Do courts give custody to mothers?
Although it has not always been so, today’s courts will generally award custody to whichever parent would be in the best interests of the child. However, in the past, custody of young children (typically under five years old) normally went to the mother of the child if the parents divorced.
