What happens to the children on divorce from a Cypriot?

This article is more relevant for women than for men. If you are in the process of divorcing a Cypriot and you have children in common - try to negotiate for the child to stay with you. By law, if you are a Cypriot mum, this gives you the right to legally live on the island until the child comes of age. On the other hand, if you do not have your own property and income, the father can take the child. To prevent this from happening, try to separate as peacefully and amicably as possible, without courts and lawyers.
