S10 Ep82: Can a Parent Lose Custody for Being Too Strict?

from Divorce Fast & Easy In Michigan

#ChooseGoldman Strictness or running a tight ship in your household will not automatically result in losing child custody under Michigan law. While parenting styles vary between homes, courts evaluate whether discipline remains within good-faith judgment and will intervene if strictness turns into excessive corporal punishment. • Being a strict parent with firm rules does not mean you will lose custody of your children. • Courts recognize that different parenting styles exist and do not penalize reasonable discipline. • Discipline crosses a legal line into abuse when physical punishment leaves marks or welts. • Judges evaluate whether parents exercise appropriate, good-faith judgment in raising their kids. • A child's safety and well-being remain the primary focus of Michigan custody courts.
