Paul Yip and Melissa Chan say the ‘parental responsibility model’ that the Hong Kong government proposes should guide our would reduce stress on the affected children
The government recently launched a pubic consultation on how to amend our legislation on child custody and access, in response to the rising number of divorces in Hong Kong. Data shows that the total number of divorce decrees granted in 2013 (22,271 cases) was more than 10 times the number in 1981 (2,060 cases) in Hong Kong, and so more children are affected. The government should be commended for taking this step.
