Divorce Plunged in Kentucky. Equal Custody for Fathers Is a Big Reason Why

[Secure Da Bag]

This could work as double edge blade...fathers get to see their kids a lot more who want to be a parent.

But what about abusers?

It depends what kind of abuse (in terms ease/burden of proof), but....

Police reports, pictures, videos, witnesses. Does this new law prevent those from being used to determine custody?

Mama's boys in here constantly saying they need to be better dad's, husband's, etc. etc. Bruh we have a whole generation of children raised by single mothers right now and look at the results. They are doing a shyt job, the question needs to be why should we keep automatically giving these kids to the women(cause it didn't used to be that way), not what men need to do to be better parents. Y'all are insane with y'alls mama worship.

I have custody court on Tuesday, looking forward to it. Our current arrangement, is that I get my daughter's first 3 weekends of each month, Friday thru Sunday.

This is not a court order. It's an agreed upon arrangement that she and I came to in May 2021. There was a temporary court order in place from May 2020, to May 2021, that had me getting the girls every other weekend.

When that order ended on May 7, 2021, its been an agreement that she and I worked out together.

We are only in court because I filed on her dumbass back in January. After years of trying to negotiate more time with the girls with her, which, I got more time sparingly, but not consistently, and she has refused to agree to a set arrangment of more time---->I filed on her bytch ass.

I'm in North Carolina, personally, I don't think I'll get the split, but I do think I'll get an arrangement greater than what we have currently (first 3 weekends). I feel pretty good my time is about to increase. Worst case scenario is they put the current arrangement on paper. Its not going backwards.

She is asking for the time to reverse to every other weekend, which we haven't done in more than 4 years. With some "indeterminate" amount of time with the girls in the summer.

She is also trying to plug for more child support, that's definitely about to backfire on her.

It's been multiple generations of men in masse raised by mostly the mom. I'm fighting for my rights, because I know the way this could go if my daughters are just with her.

It's wild how many men support the notion of men not receiving equal custody, or blame men for relationships going south. There are times when that is relevant....and many other times when it doesn't apply at all.

Ever since my son came to live with me full time it's a night and day difference in the progress he has made and the improvements in his behavior compared to when he was with his mama. I get real tired of hearing everyone in here just automatically blaming the men in every situation, it's dangerous and irresponsible to keep doing so seeing what is actually happening right in front of your eyes.

This is bullshyt to signal to people who don't read.

It's the "default" arrangement, meaning; start at 50/50 then make the decision if a change is needed.

I was wondering why folks were talking about controlling women and preventing divorce when it's just about child custody.

this is misandry the laws favoring women has nothing to do with responsible fathers. Bending to the will of the mother is not being a Responsible father.

I'm saying giving 50/50 custody could do that. I should have said more involved father's

cant' remember who said it, but having kids, esp boys go with the father once they are 10 years old or middle school age is what needs to happen.

According to the cdc more men are involved in their kids lives, and 20% of men are responsible for the single mothers situation
