Re: who gets children
The desire of the parents, reflected by the appointment of the guardian of the children, will carry a lot of weight with the court. If there is a disagreement as to who should raise the children, the court will look at the best interest of the children. The result will depend upon the contact the parties have with the children and other similar factors.
