A. Being a female child court looking to the betterment will propably not give sole custody to you unless and untill you justify court that you have financial resources and your parents are ready to take care of your girl child.
On part custody it is beneficial for you because you will meet with your daughter and that will help you to maintain your relationship in terms of care and affection. So that your child will not loose confidence in you.

My daughter aged 11 years want to stay with her grandmother on her own wish, without our permission,do law allow her to take own decisions?


A. Hi,
If your spouse and you are in the middle of separation proceedings, then the Guardians and Wards Act provides that children above 9 years must be heard when it comes to their preference of where to stay. However, if you are not separating, then the child is under your guardianship till she is 18 years old, and you may take a decision of your choice which you believe is in her best interests.

my in laws took my kids without my permission so which action i can take against them my husband is in abort he is aware of this.


A. Hi,
I'd suggest going to them yourself and bringing your children back with you. If that fails, then you shall have no choice but to file a complaint with the police. If your husband is abroad, then you are considered the children's sole legal guardian and as such, your permission will be needed before anyone takes your children away.
