It designates that both parents have the same rights to make decisions on pertaining to the child's/children's welfare. Such as schooling, medical care, participation in sports, etc. Although if compromises cannot be made the court will not trouble itself with the trivial issues, such as whether or not a child should be allowed to play soccer. Hopefully all decisions that need to be made by the parents will be amicable and in the child's/children's best interest.

Can prenuptial agreements determine custody of children?

Generally:A couple could execute a prenuptial agreement that mentions the custody of the children if the couple should split. A court may consider that agreement if custody becomes a contentious issue it but would be under no obligation to abide by it. Courts make custody orders on the basis of what is best for the children. Two individuals signing an agreement regarding custody cannot tie the court's hands on that issue.Generally:A couple could execute a prenuptial agreement that mentions the custody of the children if the couple should split.

If you have been separated for over a year but is still married and the child has been with the mother the whole time does she have full custody until custody is decided?

The mother has de facto custody. I do not know whether a separation agreement is involved defining legal custody, but from the sound of your question, I doubt it. Usually a fair Court with all things being equal will allow the child to remain with the mother until custody is decided. However, the determination of custody is not made until there is a signed agreement so Ordered by a Judge or a Court issues another legal paper, for instance a Judgment or an Order, that incorporates that signed agreement or until a judge decides custody.
