Custody battles are such a weird part of white culture lmao like literally what do you mean you have legally mandated times your kid can see either of their parents? Just let the kid pick where they wanna be and for how long at a time

That opens up a whole new debate on who the kid likes more and introduces bribery and all sorts of things to take advantage of the fact that the kid is a kid for their own personal gain

“White culture” ah yes white culture where they facilitate times for divorcee parents to have time with their children. We should take a note from the black parents and just have the dad be completely absent!

Idk why you're so mad lol is this triggering for you? You wanted to spend more time with one parent but the judge wouldn't let you :/ well, I'm mad too on your behalf! Sorry that you only got to see your dad for dinner every other Thursday

It literally doesn't have to if everybody would just be normal instead of using their kids as a pawn to make their ex mad lol that's literally what I'm commenting on with this post. That's weird lol argue over who gets the lake house not over who gets the kid unless there's actual like safety concerns

I'm making a generalization. Generally speaking, this is a white people thing

My point is that it’s not “white culture” I’m not even sure why race came up at all in your message.

Think of every person you know who had to deal with a custody battle in a divorce. Now think how many of them where white vs not white

Anecdotal yes my favorite! I grew up in a black area all my divorce stories are of black people.

Sure anecdotes don't work when you're considering a sample not representative of the population you're generalizing. There are no stats to reference on this, they don't records custody battle racial demographics. With that said, 2 things that are statistically true are 1.) custody battles predominantly happen in higher income households bc they can afford to litigate and 2.) higher income households are disproportionately white. Noticing associations isn't wrong just bc we lack studies for them

Blah blah blah still no reason to even bother mentioning race at all :/ Also you can look at divorce by race and divorced with children numbers and those are more accurate than whatever bullshit ur spitting

That literally doesn't do anything to support or refute my argument lol. My argument is not people who get divorced and have children have custody battles. My argument is most people who get divorced and have children that have custody battles are white. Knowing what percent of divorced couples by race have kids literally doesn't not indicate anything about who disproportionately has custody battles
