Most child custody disputes are between the child's parents. But families can be much more than parents and children. Grandparents also can play an important role in children's lives. Many grandparents would do anything to avoid losing their relationship with their grandchildren. But disputes with the child's parents often cause that relationship to become disrupted.
Child support matters more complex with disabled children
Ending a marriage or relationship that children are a part of is rarely an easy task. A complicated process is made that much more difficult when one of the children involved has a disability. In addition to more immediate issues such as the division of assets and debts, child custody and child support, parents must look far into the future to determine how they can work together to make sure their child is cared for. This is true regardless of what the disability is.
