Here's the crucial point that's often missed in the movie K v K. Joanna is doing the right thing here by letting her son's father keep custody of the child. But she had to beat him in court first, before she could bring herself to "do the right thing".
The fact she even won in court was insane. She left her family with little or no provocation and was gone for 15 months, then shows up and demands her son? Ted was not a perfect dad, but he and Billy were doing well when she showed back up. She couldn't handle being a stay at home mom, but was going to handle it now with no husband and having a full time career? I know courts tend the favor the woman in custody cases, but that was nuts.
@@tonyc7301 You have to consider that this movie came out about 40 years ago. Back then family courts in some states followed what was known as the "tender years doctrine", which held with the theory that children of "tender years" needed to be with the mother in the event of divorce. This presumption was rebuttable if the father presented sufficient facts to the contrary, but that usually was an uphill battle. In my state that doctrine was struck down about 30 years ago, and the law became more favorable to joint custody. Of course, the best interests of the child will always be the primary consideration for the court.
