What is the conduct of one parent in accessing the other parent's child?

New Brunswick, Canada


The following excerpt is from J.S. v. E.A., 2017 NBQB 44 (CanLII):

Ordinarily, the conduct of the parent is only relevant if it speaks to the ability of the parent to parent the child. Nor is the reason for the move relevant ordinarily unless the move is motivated by a hope to thwart access by the other parent. Gordon v. Goertz at paragraph 23.
