Alaska divorce - child custody.


Custody is determined with the best interests of the child in mind. Factors to be considered are:
 
(1) the capability and desire of each parent to meet the child's needs; (2) the physical, emotional, mental, religious, and social needs of the child; (3) the preference of the child (if the child is of sufficient age and capacity); (4) the love and affection between the child and each parent; (5) the length of time the child has lived in a stable, satisfactory environment and the desirability of maintaining continuity; (6) the desire and ability of each parent to allow an open and loving frequent relationship between the child and the other parent; (7) any evidence of domestic violence, child abuse, neglect, or spousal abuse; and (8) any evidence of substance abuse that affects the emotional or physical well-being of the child. Neither parent is considered to be entitled to custody. [Alaska Statutes; Section 25.24.150].
 
Joint/shared custody may be awarded, if it is in the best interests of the child. For shared custody to be awarded, the court considers the following factors:
 
(1) the child's needs and education; (2) any special needs of the child that may be better met by 1 parent; (3) any findings of a neutral mediator; (4) the optimal time for the child to be with each parent; (5) the physical proximity of the parents as it relates to where the child will reside and where the child will attend school; (6) the advantage of keeping the child in the community where he or she presently resides; (7) whether shared custody will promote more frequent or continuing contact between the child and the parents; (8) the length of time the child has lived in a stable, satisfactory environment and the desirability of maintaining continuity; (9) the fitness and suitability of each of the parents (including any evidence of substance abuse); (10) any history of violence by either parent; (11) the preference of the child (if the child is of sufficient age and capacity); (12) the stability of the home of each parent; and (13) any other relevant factors. [Alaska Statutes; Section 25.20.090].
