Why would children be split up?

Back to Top

Split custody might happen because

  • one parent does not feel capable of caring for all of the children in the family;
  • there are large age differences among the children;
  • the children are old enough to be consulted and have indicated very strong preferences about who they live with; or
  • the children themselves are experiencing severe difficulties in getting along with one another.
