Child custody, child support* and in some states, waivers of alimony cannot be. A prenup will MAYBE protect money and physical assets to some extent but even then, only if it's written very well and defended (at great cost) in court.
Still a good idea but "not going there" at all is a much better one.
* State-sanctioned mysandry "for the children". If this sounds cynical, ask me about my friend who has lost almost half his income and his retirement plans to "child" support that his ex has used to buy (among other things) a timeshare, a Land Rover SUV, spa treatments and two vacations (one to Hawaii, one to Europe) WITHOUT the kids but with her new bf. He's been denied twice that I know of to even have the court hear the case - they won't even listen to it. I have a couple of other examples too.
