Re: divorse

in terms of the Guardianship & Wards Act, the custody of the child should be given to the party who is found to be most suitable for taking care of the child. the "paramount consideration" for the court to arrive a decision will be the 'welfare of the child'.

Re: divorse

till the age of 5 the child is given in mothers custody however the paramount importance is about the welfare of the kid

it is a fact that the fighting parents dont think about the baby. so the court has to decide this.
