Charlie Sheen gives up custody of children; Being an 'unfit parent' in perspective

Admist all his controversy, Charile Sheen has given up custody  of his children he has with Denise Richards.
Sources intimately familiar with the situation tell TMZ ... Charlie and Denise signed a written agreement in which Denise now has full legal custody of 6-year-old Sam and 4-year-old Lola. Up to now Charlie and Denise had joint legal custody.

We're told the agreement was signed two weeks ago but the parties didn't want to file it with the court just yet.

Now that Denise has full legal custody ... she can make medical, schooling and other important decisions without getting Charlie's sign-off. She can also leave the country with the kids without Charlie's permission.

Under their divorce agreement, Denise has primary physical custody and Charlie has visitation rights.

We've learned Charlie has been paying Denise $50,000 a month in child support since their divorce. As we first reported yesterday, according to Brooke Mueller's prenup with Charlie, she'll get $55,000 a month in child support plus add-ons -- like medical and schooling expenses -- and that could drive the monthly support upwards of $125,000.
Is it better that he gave up custody of his children at this time?  Should he try and get custody back after he gets help for his problems?

Sometimes parents can expose their children to so much and will not claim that they are unfit parents.  Being labeled an unfit parent has so many negative connotations to it, but it may not be. Accepting that you aren't stable enough to raise children and deciding to send your children to a better shows a sign of perspective and maturity that you may not think you have.  Some parents do not have this perspective
