You are likely not all that familiar with the laws or procedures while, at the same time, you are dealing with the emotional challenges that these issues bring.
You may be experiencing loss, anger, grief or other difficult reactions resulting from the ending of your marriage or disputed issues.
This is often accentuated by the enormity of having to make decisions concerning yourself and your children that can have far-reaching consequences long into the future.

This is especially true for stay-at-home parents who have not worked and have little resources, individuals with much lower paying jobs than their partners, Individuals with health difficulties, or older individuals of retirement age.

Child custody is one of those issues in divorce, post-divorce, or between unmarried parents that can be very divisive.

You obviously want to ensure that your relationship with your child is maintained in the best possible manner and that can feel threatened when a custody issue arises.
Protecting your parental rights both during and after a divorce and long into the future is commonly a matter that creates uncertainty and anxiety in any parent.
