Si un niño vive en Georgia, las decisiones sobre su custodia se deben tomar allí. Si alguien intenta que un tribunal de otro estado tome una decisión, como Florida, puede que no sea válido si Georgia es su hogar.
Es como cuando tienes un juguete que pertenece a tu casa y un amigo quiere jugar con él en su casa. Tienes que decidir qué hacer en tu propia casa, no en la de tu amigo.
