It is important to know that child custody can be changed. If the child’s mental, physical, or emotional health is jeopardized, an individual might request a modification of custody during the first two years of the initial custody ruling. After this time, the court has the authority to change custody if it believes it is in the best interests of the kid.

As your kid grows older and his or her needs change, you may request a custody change. You may also do so to safeguard the child’s physical or mental health (for example, in situations of domestic abuse) or if one parent intends to relocate, which may have an adverse effect on the child’s life.
