What is the definition of Custody? ๐ ๐
The legal right to take care of something or somebody, especially children.
Alright class, settle down and letโs seeโฆ
Letโs talk about โcustody,โ itโs a word youโll meet,
It deals with families, bittersweet.
The dictionary says itโs quite clear,
"The legal right to care, year after year."
Think of it this way, a gentle plea,
Who decides how children will be free?
Custody
means deciding who's in charge,
Of looking after a child, with love and large!
Itโs about the care they need each day,
Where theyโll live and play, come what may.
We have ๐physical custody๐, you see,
Where a child actually lives, happily!
And then there's ๐legal custody๐ too,
Who makes decisions for them, itโs true!
Does that make sense to you? Any questions before we move on? Donโt be shy, let your thoughts be known!
