I am wanting to get a divorce and my husband found out that I had an affair. Will that affect who gets custody of our children? Can he use that against me?
By the book...No. The main factors in custody are supposed to be The best interest of the child. Who was the Primary care giver? Do you both work full time? It is easy in divorce to use the kids as weapons on the other. Have you discussed shared parenting options with your ex? The courts can tend to favor women. Remembed to be fair to everyone and try to settle out of court if at all possible. Good luck!
Like I said, the deck is stacked in your favor. The affair should have little to no bearing here. Just remember, he is their father and deserves to play a MAJOR role in their lives! They will need their father. I dont know if you have researched shared parenting, but I am sure you have heard the stats on fatherless children. Be fair and everybody wins. Put aside the anger of the divorce and focus on the kids. If you dont one day you will wish you had! Good luck and post on the upper boards and you will get help from everyone!
