When will a court limit a custodial parent's decision to move with the child?
Ontario, Canada
The following excerpt is from Ryall v. Ryall, 2009 ONCJ 687 (CanLII):
[94] One of the factors a court should carefully assess before limiting a custodial parent's decision to move with the child is the economic effect of its decision on the child; see Woodhouse v. Woodhouse, supra, at paragraph [38]. But the fact that the mother’s financial life will be better in the U.K. and her life as a single parent will be easier there are not the only reasons that the mother wants to return to the U.K.
