Descrição: Following parental separation, child custody decisions determine the legal responsibilities of each parent to the child or children. The increase in parental separation in the United States since the second half of the twentieth century for reasons other than death has lead to greater visibility of child custody decisions. There are two types of child custody: legal and physical. Legal child custody refers to decision‐making regarding the child's health and welfare. Physical child custody refers to shared parenting time; physical custody arrangements include joint, sole, split, alternating, and third party. Child custody decisions have implications for family life, parental involvement, child visitation, and child support obligations.
