The fact that your mother works or that your father is on Social Security will not affect the custody decision. It will be based on non-economic factors contributing to what is in the best interest of the children.

Relative incomes have nothing to do with custody decisions. That's what child support is for.

The fact that he lives off social security has not bearing on custody issues. The well-being of the child is all that is considered.
