Re: North Carolina Child Custody Law Taliesin2 Sat Oct 14 23:29:43 2000 Aodhfionn wrote,*br*: Greetings, all.*br*:*br*: Two months ago I was told of a statute in North Carolina *br*: stating that in Child Custody Cases where one parent was *br*: Christian and the other was not, the Christian Parent will *br*: always be given custody. I've spent the past two months *br*: trying to find this law, and have yet to find anything *br*: worded exactly like that, though I still have a lot of text *br*: to go through. *br*:*br*: However, I did recently find the following at the website *br*: for the Rosen Law Firm in North Carolina *br*: (http://www.rosen.com/childcustody2.htm#1):*br*:*br*: "Judges consider a variety of factors in determining *br*: which parent is entitled to custody including the age of the *br*: child, the time each parent has available to spend with the *br*: child, the stability of the parents, efforts by either *br*: parent to undermine the other parent, abductions, moves out *br*: of state, facilitation of visitation and involvement of the *br*: other parent, child abuse and neglect, drug and alcohol *br*: problems, religion, non-marital sexual relationships and the *br*: preferences of the children."*br*:*br*: The specific mention of religion in this explanation of *br*: custody determination gives me reason to suspect that what I *br*: was told was accurate. I plan to continue exploring this, *br*: but would appreciate any help anyone can give regarding *br*: verification of this blatant religious discrimination. If *br*: anyone has the time to find the actual law, please inform *br*: me.*br*:*br*: Thank you.*br*: Aodhfionn*p*Aodhfionn here is one link you can explore. I believe it searches several legal sites/search engines at once. Try the key words child custody and North Carolina among other terms. Also you might want to look up your state's web site. The state web site for Virginia has a link to its laws that one can search.
