In TIME magazine:
When it comes to child custody, the courts and traditional thinking presume that children should be with their moms. That’s the legacy of “sexism and misunderstanding of child psychology,” says Johnson. “The norm has been for kids to stay with the mom and for dads to pay child support, leaving women dependent on men for money and dads becoming just satellite characters in their kids’ lives.”

Johnson says that with 50% custody, a divorced mom could have more time and energy to put into her own financial future. Both parents have to commit to taking truly equal responsibility. “This is not just about dads exercising their rights to more time with their children, but also taking full equal responsibility for sick days, coordinating appointments and activities and all the emotional labor that women have typically taken on,” says Johnson.

Moms lead more than 80% of single-parent households. But author Emma Johnson and other experts say a 50/50 split of child custody would make divorce more equitable.
