Single mothers have sole custody until ruled on otherwise by the courts. The standard minimum ruling is Joint Legal Custody unless there's significant evidence of abuse.

No, you do not have to be single to apply for sole custody. The decision to grant sole custody is based on the best interests of the child, and being single or in a relationship is not a determining factor in the application process. The court will consider various factors, such as the child's relationship with both parents and their ability to provide a safe and nurturing environment.
