If a woman is given custody of child after divorce and she has better career prospects abroad, can she be asked to either choose her career or get child custody.
Supreme Court has ruled that the woman cannot be asked to make such choice. she is allowed her career and also given child custody. But she is given directions to allow child's father to see him at reasonable time. This is a big relief to women who are quite often blackmailed for their love to child.
Any comments, please.

Anbul- This was a case for custody of child after divorce. The custody was given by court to mother. father would also be given chance to meet the child. Mean while, the mother got an opportunity of job in a foreign country. The father of the child asked that the mother be asked either to leave the child or the job abroad. At this the supreme court ruled that a woman can not be asked to choose between career and child.
I think its depend upon women she feel force or love . If she feel that she love that child then it will convert to love then no problem other wise it will difficult for both. I think way should be nice for both child and women. If women able to make career with child then no problem.
Although courts are often approached to find solutions to marital problems in most of the cases the court rulings hardly provide satisfatory ones.In this case the understanding and maturity on the part of the litigating couples can greatly help in finding an amicable solution.Sadly their decisions to involve courts are guided by ego and crude emotion.A woman can both pursue her career ends as well as discharge her motherly duties as so many thousand of women are doing it successfully.
In matter of family disputes, courts try to bring out an amicable settlement by acting as counselor rather than law court. Only when the relations are irreparable, that court reluctantly allows divorce. The care of children is very delicate issue. Mother is considered more appropriate for small child custody.
