Lawyer shares new trend she's noticing in divorce court that makes her happy

A lawyer has sparked mixed reactions after rejoicing over a trend she recently began noticing in court. 

Kelly Ekezie said she noticed that more women are requesting to leave their kids with their ex-husbands. 

She wrote: 'Yesterday in court, a woman made a request that had almost everyone laughing. 

'“My Lord, let him have custody of the children. Grant me visitation rights, and I'll contribute financially to their upkeep.” 

'The interesting part? The man's lawyer was seriously arguing for the WOMAN to keep the children! 

'Ah ah! Oga, what happened? 

'You see, from my experience, some fathers become less consistent with financial support once custody is awarded to the mother. School fees, feeding, medical bills... suddenly, everything becomes “Ask your mother!” 

'Now, some women, particularly where the children are a little older, are saying: 

'“Daddy, over to you! I'll pay maintenance and come for visitation.” 

'And suddenly, everyone remembers that children need their mothers! 

'Of course, custody is not about passing children around like parcels. Their best interests must always come first. 

'But I love the conversation this is starting. 

'Parenting is a shared responsibility, even when marriage ends!'

    Only women who are shortsighted in reasoning will willingly give out her children to the man in the course of a divorce it will be trending cos today's women lack common sense when it comes to relationships and family building they think it's all about money and materials, what do you bring to the table ?
