Preferred term

fault and child custody  

Definition

  • In 1817, the Chancery in England refused the poet Percy Bysshe Shelley's request for return of his children from their maternal grandfather because he had advocated unorthodox religious beliefs and had published antigovernmental tracts. In 1879, Annie Besant lost custody of her daughter for publishing a book on birth control, deemed by authorities of the time to be obscene.
