    You may always apply and ask for sole custody of the child, this is the most common request still. Sole custody does not mean the father will not get visitation with the child if he files for it.
    That is often misunderstood. So even with sole custody the father can get visitation rights to the child. You would also file for child support

    Have you filed for support? If not, why not?
