People and their living situations change over time. One parent who may have previously been the primary caregiver may have recently started abusing substances, in which case the other parent may need to seek a change in their custody agreement. One parent may be attempting to move, which can potentially cause a lot of problems for the other parent in an existing child custody agreement.

Factors That Can Affect Child Custody

• Current parent-child relationships
• The preference of the child/ren
• Special needs (if any) of the child
• Evidence of abusive behavior, substance abuse or criminal behavior by one of the parents
• Which parent has been the primary caregiver
• The physical and mental health and wellbeing of each parent
• The proximity of each parent’s home to things like the child’s school, their friends, relatives, etc.
