Sure, they give you joint legal custody, but thats not the same as joint physical custody. So; does your friend have joint legal or joint physical custody? Secondly, how many friends do you have that are divorced, and what percentage got primary physical custody even if mother didn't have a problem and wanted primary custody. None? I thought so. In this state, they grant joint physical custody only if both parties agree to it. So if mother wants primary physical custody, she will likely get it. Joint legal custody sounds nice, but as a father you have very few rights; so in the end you just shut up and pay.

He has joint physical custody which requires that both parents reside in the same school district. In this case both wanted primary custody of the child.

As far as Elian goes, what has Lasaro done illegal, except go to court to assert his rights? If you feel as I do that the court system is a mess; then fix the system; not just proclaim father's rights in one case; but make it so in all divorce cases. How many fathers in this country get any type of help just getting visitation rights. Where is Reno then? Unless you mountains of cash and time, you get nothing; except the right to pay for everything; and getting blamed for disrupting the childrens lives.

Like I said before, the handling of Elian had nothing to do with divorce laws.....other laws were violated by both the mother and the inlaws in an effort to thwart the father's chances of raising his son. I think that's criminal and I think they should put Mr. Lasoro's sorry *ss in jail.
