They don't take that into consideration, unfortunately.

The best fit. However, the age of the children matter, they have choice.
Now a days, they have split custody. They share the children, it is what is in the best interest of the child, not who was scorned.
Different situations for different people.

In most divorces, the mother gets primary custody, but in an affair, the opposite spouse of the one that was having an affair would most likely have the highest chances of getting custody. This is probably because the other spouse has proved him/herself irresponsible. Even in this case, though, shared custody would most likely also be an available option, but spouse that was not having an affair would most likely gain primary custody.

Let's hope that both could come to some type of agreement between the two,without dragging it to court and in which case they would both still have custody,no one above the other. If it goes to court it will be based on the children's best interest,who is better qualified to care for the children and their welfare.

They don't do that anymore! Both parents have the same rights to the children regardless who ruined the marriage! Unless you can prove they are an unfit parent! Usually it's shared custody!

having an affair isn't going to determine who gets custody of children. so, what I'm going to have to go off of is that you're asking who will retain custody or who will likely retain primary custody of the children?

maximum kinfolk courts use age 14 by fact the element at which they are going to evaluate (repeat evaluate) the evaluations of a teenager. So for now they are going to in all probability stay with mom and he won't attempt lower back until eventually between the lads asks. this may well be a undemanding danger by skill of divorcing fathers used to maintain the youngster help as low as conceivable. i wouldn't trouble lots.

i was divorced, and my husband tried to make a three-ring circus out of a custody battle. it wasn't pretty for our son.
i think the children should be a big part in the decision making process... if they are old enough to read and write, they are probably old enough to decide what they'd like to do.
joint custody and shared time also works out for the kids many times.
you have options. don't hurt your kids just because you're bitter.
take care.

i would have to say the parent that is not having the affair, but its more likely that the mother would get custody, unless she has mental issues too

Whoever is NOT having the affair. But, mainly the mother will get custody.

It all depends. Who is the most fit parent. They could share custody.
