Child custody comes into the picture when children’s age is below 18 years and the spouses are getting separated or taking the divorce or annulment of marriage or fighting for the physical custody of their child. Family courts generally decide the matter in the best interests of the child or children. In most cases, the non-custodial parent will get visitation rights.
