Legal custody refers to the right to make basic decisions about a child, as regarding education and medical care; physical custody refers to where the child lives and who provides day-to-day care and control. Where both parents share a home with the children, custody is fully shared by both parents; where a single parent raises a child alone from the time of birth or adoption, that person has sole custody."}
