Abstract

Specifics of the post-divorce adjustment of so-called “joint custody” and its benefits and disadvantages that is subject to a several years-long discussions in the whole Czech society. Joint custody can take on many forms, such as true co-ordinance of mentally mature parents who are able to cooperate in the child’s interest. However, when and how can this form of organisation become suitable for the child? In some cases, perhaps even more so at certain ages, can this form be unsuitable or even threatening to the child? This article will present several specific cases that originate from qualitative research practise based on the author’s long-term psychological practice in this area.
