Petition Action

Most capable parent gains full custody of children in relationship breakdown.

Petition Details

Currently parents in receipt of Child Benefit have legal advantage, reducing non-resident parent to maintenance payee and convenient baby sitter. With no legal decision making powers over education, healthcare and residency. Even though the non-resident parent could be the better decision maker.

Additional Information

Children from broken homes are nine times more likely to commit crimes than those from stable families.

Non-resident parents who also have resident children are less likely to report that they are close to the children who do not live with them than parents without resident children. Some 85% of fathers with no resident children say they have a close relationship with their non-resident children, 69% of fathers with resident children report this.
