This with regards to parental consent and custody of the children with all the arrangements for the children. These are such issues as maintenance and custody, visiting, and who pays for what.

If this cannot be reached. Then the divorce will be a contested divorce and the matter would have to be placed on the court roll. This for the final decision to be made by the courts. Note that the courts will decide what is best for the child or children. They may also appoint a third party as the guardian. See also the mutual consent divorce for another view.
