Dear queriest, if you already have custody of your childrens, then it is not all necessary to file for custody, and secondly if you are going for mutual consent divorce then the terms should be already discussed and finalized in the petition and consent terms,

I will first suggest you both should try your best not to divorce each other for the sake of innocent children. But if you both had decided to move further for divorce by mutual consent then have parental visiting rights to both of you so that children will get love of both of you.
