Joint Custody / The Better Option

Abstract: A 6 page paper examining issues surrounding joint custody. The paper provides a history of laws leading to maternal-bias custody and how that was changed by "the men's movement," issues mothers face, issues fathers face, issues children face, and statistics which prove that sole-custody is not as good an idea as joint custody. Recommended self-help tips for parents are included as a response to parental issues. The writer argues that children suffer the most from divorce, but joint custody is the better option. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
