Wyoming law provides a list of factors a judge must consider when determining "the best interests of the child." Some of these are: the quality of the child's relationship with each parent. each parent's ability to provide adequate care for the child, including arranging for the child's care by others as needed.

Things like the right to participate in decisions about a child's medical issues. The right to the children's educational records. The right to attend parent teacher conferences. Legal custody allows a parent to help raise their child.

That's something of a trick question, because normally a child?meaning someone under the age of majority, which is 18 in Wyoming?doesn't have decision-making power when it comes to custody. (Wyo. Stat. § 14-1-101.)

You file the petition in the court where the children lived for the last six months before filing. You also send a copy of the petition to the other side.
