I remember reading a few years back, that Michigan is the state that stands out in my mind, basically was going to make it mandatory of mom and dad couldn't put aside their petty differences (and it's all petty differences when it comes to children) that the custody would be 50/50. Well, if mom and dad can't be cooperative in a divorce, how would one expect them to be cooperative in joint custody. What about women who are trying to get out of violent or abusive relationships?
The parents need to get their acts together and decide what is in the best interest of the child. Fighting over custody is not. If the parents can't do it, then the courts need to, and the parents have to deal with it.
