A man and his wife were getting a divorce at a local court. But the Custody of their children posed a problem.
The mother jumped to her feet and protested to the judge that since she had brought the children into this world, she should retain custody of them.
The man also wanted custody of his children. The judge asked for his side of the story too. After a long moment of silence, the man rose from his chair and replied:
"Judge, when I put a dollar into a vending machine, and a Pepsi comes out, does the Pepsi belong to me or to the machine?"
Don't laugh, but the man won!
dotz.....i thought they'd look at the financial situation of both parents, and also on who is better abled to look after the kids...most of the time, mothers get the kids cos, fathers are not supposed to be able to take care of a young child....
but then, sometimes, things are different...esp if i'm the mother...heck, i can't even take care of myself properly....
