Does the mother always end up with custody even if the father has not done anything wrong?

In Oklahoma she does. Despite talk to the contrary, there is little equality in Family courts. You should get a consultation with an experienced Family law attorney in your town. They usually give a free or low-cost first consultation. Ask him/her for the realities of the local judges.
I would suggest a person who has limited his/her practice to Family law for quite a while. They're the ones who are frequently in family court and have been before all the judges.

Can a child live with his father if the mother has parental responsibilty?
If a child's mother has sole custody then the courts have decided this and there is a reason for it. Generally, if the mother is a good mother (fit mother) then the children will be looked after by her with the father having partial custody to see his children. If the father is unfit, then the mother would have full custody. If you are the child asking the question and are upset because your mother has house rules and you don't always agree with them then this is not a good reason to want to live with your father. Your mother gives you these responsibilities so you will learn good characteristics that will make your life a whole lot simpler. You may not see that now, but will in the future. If this is the father asking the question and you have partial custody the courts have deemed it this way for a reason. If the mother is unfit and the father wants to take full custody then you should retain a lawyer asking for full custody.
