A.Mothers has full right of custody of child only upto 5 years ago of child after age of 5 year child court will grant custody of child that parent with whome child welfare observed . Court will consider paramount welfare of child. After 18 years age child became major as per Indian majority act and it is child discretion with whome he want to live.

A.The mother usually gets custody of the minor child, under the age of five but after five it can be given to any parent.
various factors are considered while deciding custody petition like financial status, the welfare of the child, will/consent of the child, educational status, living standard, place, extra amenities, etc
The most important factor is the BEST INTEREST OF THE CHILD.
The earning capacity of the parent does not determine custody, but the capacity to provide a safe and secure environment does. Even a mother who is a housewife can gain custody of the child and the father will be asked to provide child support.
keeping in view the above facts, you can prepare your defense.

A.First of all a mother has the primary and immediate right over child if s/he is young but once the child turns 18 s/he is considered an adult and its all on the will and wish of the child to live with any of the parents...so there is no case of custody in the first instance as understood from ur query and information. U u can just convince the child to move in with u ..there will be no criminal offence in that
