Re: Child Visitation Rights
The "Tender Years" doctrine assumed that a child was best cared for by the mother during the child's early years. There is no such preference in Ohio. Ohio considers both parents to be on equal footing in the eyes of the law concerning their child(ren).
I hope this information is helpful.
