What does the court consider in determining custody of minor children and visitation rights?
What will be an ideal response?
Factors considered in determining custody focus on the best interests of the child, and considerations include health, age, and in some instances, the preferences of the child, as well as the financial and emotional stability of each parent. The court in a paternity action or dissolution of marriage may award custody to one of the parents solely. The court may also order joint custody, with physical custody of the child to one of the parents, and order visitation rights to the noncustodial parent. Custody orders may be modified if there is a substantial change in circumstances.
