My daughter wants to live with me, and my son with his dad. Do courts in Israel split up children?

As a rule, courts in Israel are loathe to split up siblings, and only do so as an exception,usually after receiving the recommendations of a neutral professional appointed,which take into account the children's wishes, if they are of sufficient age and maturity. The chances of children being split up are greater the older they are, as their wishes play a more important role.
