Child Custody Stability Factors
Summary
In Illinois, a parent can request custody changes even after a long absence. The court focuses on the childs best interests, considering factors like stability, the childs relationship with the current guardian, and reasons for the parents absence. Your case for maintaining custody is strong, given the stability and care you provide. The absence of extended family support does not typically weaken your case if you can demonstrate stability and the best interests of the children.Full Conversation
