[quote=Anonymous]Abandonment is something you need to be charged with in court. Obviously if two spouses agree that one needs to be away, there is no issue. If one unilaterally removes themselves and refuses to engage in the care and supervision of the child, however, they are opening themselves to that charge in court. It can impact custody. A different way of working this out that I have seen is the dad moves out but comes back in the mornings and between end of school/dinner to engage with and care for the child. Maybe the mother leaves the house during that time by previous agreement. Either way, you can’t just walk out and say well, I pay the bills so I’m still providing AND have it not count against you in a custody case. Duh.[/quote]
