I know of several cases. One where it was obvious the mother had no work history, the child was 10 years old and the judge said the father should have custody so the child wouldn't grow up on welfare. A friend of mine got custody after the mother went bankrupt after her next divorce and lost her home. Another got custody after the mother was arrested for dealing drugs with her new boyfriend. And I know one guy who was widowed and left with 4 kids to raise.

And I've seen countless welfare moms treating their kids like garbage. Each of them had custody.

My first wife died from complications of child birth. I raised our child by myself from 3 days old to a little over three years old. It gives one an interesting persepective.
