WHAT IS CHILD CUSTODY
There are two types of custody: legal and physical. Legal custody allows for one or both parents to make decisions for the child’s well being, such as which school the child will attend and which medical procedures the child will have. Physical custody refers to where the child will live.
♦ Sole child custody – means one parent will have both legal and physical custody, it’s when only one party has full rights for child custody.
♦ Joint custody – there can be joint legal and joint physical custody. The child can have a home with both parents and for instance live with one parent one week and with the other the next week. Joint legal custody requires for both parents to get along and make decisions together. It is usually inappropriate for cases where domestic violence was a factor. Joint physical custody often requires for parents to live close to one another.
♦ Third-party custody – occurs if a child is under the custody of the third party and is not his or her biological parents.

Each set of facts is different and it’s important for you to get the correct type of advice to guide you in modyfying an existing child custody order.

PARENTAL ALIENATION
Parental alienation is a way that a parent exerts a psychological effect on a child to alienate the child from the other parent. This unfortunately is very common and very destructive towards the relationship the child has with an alienated parent. It may be in the form of the parent refusing the child to use the phone to call the other parent, making disparaging remarks about the other parent in the presence of a child, ar telling the child that the other parent does not love the child. If you are a victim of alienation, it is important to deal with it immediately as it could have extremely adverse psychological effects on the child as well as your relationship with your child. You should know that alienation is a basis to change custody or to obtain full custody if you prove to the court that it is happening.
