It is definitely a possibility, but not the only factor courts use in deciding who gets custody of the children. If the mother can prove that she can support the children, the odds become even regarding income. Typically, the deciding factor after income is regarding which parent will provide better care for the children apart from providing for their financial needs.

It depends on your legal status before and after the father left. If you are married then he still has full parental rights until a court renders a custody order.
