When a romantic relationship ends, the main controversy revolves around who takes custody of the children.

In Spain, custody can be granted to just one of the parents, in which case it will be exclusive custody in favor of one of the parents, or to both jointly, in what is known as shared custody.

This shared custody of the children means that both parents can enjoy their children for the same amount of time, and generally, it implies that no child support is set, with each parent assuming the expenses incurred by the children while they are with them, except for extraordinary expenses which will be shared equally.

The Supreme Court's jurisprudence establishes that shared custody should not be an exception, but the preferred option as long as the parents can reconcile their work life with their professional life, thus protecting the best interests of the minors.
