No. Most often it is only temporary until the mother can demonstrate to the court that the home circumstances has changed. I've seen cases where a drug addicted mother, whose child (age 4) was found on the streets, miles from her home, was still given the child back after finishing drug rehab. The father decided than to rent an apartment across the hall.

That does not mean you have full custody. Even though the father is not around you should still go for full custody. Theres always that chance the father could back around and that child is not with you he has just as much right to that child as you do.
How often is the father awarded custody of the child over the mother in North Carolina?
He can still gain custody as the presumptive father.
Yes, a father can change his child's last name. However, this depends on the custody arrangement, and who has primary custody.
My answer to that would be 'No'. The father is responsible for providing child-support regardless of who has custody of the child; at least until the age of 18.

Yes, a father can file for joint custody of his child, which allows both parents to share legal and physical custody of the child.
the person who has physical possesion of the child.
Yes. There really is no "grant". The mother of a child can always be determined since she gave birth. An unmarried mother has sole custody of her child until the father can establish his paternity legally. Once his paternity has been established he can request custody, a visitation schedule and child support will be addressed.Yes. There really is no "grant".

Father must petition for custody and court will weigh what situation is best for the child

A child does not need to be abandoned by their mother for a father to be awarded full custody. If the father can demonstrate before a judge that the mother is unfit to parent, the judge can award him full custody of the child.
The mother. If she dies, her parents get custody.
No. Those are common reasons why fathers threaten to "get custody" but a father needs substantial evidence that the mother is unfit and the child would be better off with him. Obtaining custody is a serious matter and courts do not take custody away from mothers unless there is a very good reason.Any unmarried mother should make certain she is providing a nurturing environment for her child and that she is placing her child's needs before her own. If the child is well cared for and in a healthy, safe, loving environment, the courts will not take custody away from the mother.See the related links below.No. Those are common reasons why fathers threaten to "get custody" but a father needs substantial evidence that the mother is unfit and the child would be better off with him.
