Only if the court determines it would be in the best interests of the child to award such custody. The biological parents and/or an immediate relative of either would be considered before a person with no legal or biological ties to the child.
No. The biological father have rights. Unless the court find him unfit to have custody then there might be a chance.
It is normal for the mother to get custody. Yes it is but it is a slim shot.
No, he only have rights to say about the child and not the mother's personal life.
Must be since all the people doing it are not in jail
If a child wants to live with the child's boyfriend, then the child needs to be 18.
Custody is a separate issue from money. Child support payments are about money. Custody is about who raises a child, who is in charge of that child and with whom does that child live.
Custody is decided in court based on what is best for the child, not for how long the child has lived with you.
The guidelines are basically the same in every state but obviously there are a few minor differences. Joint custody consists of Primary Custody & Secondary Custody. The parent with primary custody is who the child lives with & the other parent has secondary custody. Depending on the age of the child & the state in which they reside, the court may let them determine where they choose to live. Or if both parents agree on the child's decision then the child can live with either parent.
No, there are no laws in Virginia that makes it illegal for a custodial parent to live with their boyfriend or girlfriend. If you feel you child is unsafe in this situation, you will have to pursue custody through the courts.
The person with full custody has the right to have the child live with them permanently and has the right to make all decisions regarding the child without interference.
Length of time a child lives with a parent is not a factor in determining custody or modifying it. Custody is awarded based on the court's opinion of the child's best interests.
Only if your parents agree to it, you are not 18 yet, so you are still in custody to your parents.
