In Arkansas, child custody and support are determined based on the best interests of the child. The court considers factors such as the child's relationship with each parent, the ability of each parent to provide for the child's needs, and the child's preferences if they are old enough to express them. Child support is typically calculated based on the income of both parents and the needs of the child. Parents may share joint custody or one parent may have primary custody, depending on the circumstances.
