There are different options to work out a child custody arrangement. The parties do not always have to let the judge determine the schedule. Rotating custody, although not common, works well if the parties live within five to ten miles of each other. With rotating custody, one parent keeps the child for a fixed period of time, and the other spouse keeps the child for the same amount of time. Supervised visitation is sometimes ordered by the court if the court feels that the secondary parent might be a danger to the child. The court may also direct supervised visitation if it has reason to believe that one parent (the spouse getting supervised visitation) may leave the state or the country with the minor child against the wishes of the other parent. A court may grant the custody of the child to a third-party when the third-party has sought custody. The third-party is generally the grandparent or other close relative. If the marriage has many children, a court has the power to separate the children and split the custody between parents in accord with the best interest of each particular child. Often, however, the best interests of a child will be to stay with that child's siblings, because of emotional support reasons. When deciding the home in which to place the child, the court works hard to arrive at a decision in "the best interests of the child." A decision in "the best interests of the child" needs considering the desires of the child's parents, the wishes of the child, and the child's relationship with each of the parents, siblings, other persons who may substantially impact the child's best interests, the child's comfort in his home, school, and community, and the mental and physical health of the involved individuals.
