 Article 1082 During the period of pregnancy, within one year after childbirth or within six months after termination of pregnancy, the wife may not apply for divorce; However, the exception is that the wife filed for divorce or the people's court deemed it necessary to accept the husband's divorce request.
 Article 1084 The relationship between parents and children shall not be dissolved by the parents' divorce. After divorce, whether the children are directly raised by the father or the mother, they are still children of both parents. After divorce, parents still have the right and obligation to support, educate and protect their children.
 After divorce, children under the age of two shall be directly supported by their mothers in principle. If both parents fail to reach an agreement on the upbringing of a child who has reached the age of two, the people's court shall make a judgment on the basis of the specific circumstances of both parties and the principle that it is most beneficial to the minor children. If a child has reached the age of eight, his or her true wishes shall be respected.
