🌟 Considering Withholding Your Children from Your Ex? Here's What You Need to Know! 🌟

As a parent, your first priority is to protect your children, especially in separated families. But is it okay to withhold your children from your ex? 🤔

🔹 YES, if there's a real threat:
If your child may be exposed to family violence, drugs, neglect, possible injury, or emotional harm, you must act to protect them. 🛡️

🔹 BUT be prepared:
If you decide to withhold your child, make sure you have solid evidence to back up your decision (like emails, texts, or doctor's reports). 📄

🔹 Communication is key:
Always inform the other parent and try to resolve the issue together. Major decisions, like changing schools or relocating, should be made jointly. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

🔹 Court's View:
The Court generally supports co-parenting and believes children benefit from a relationship with both parents. If you act unilaterally, you could face serious consequences unless you have a justified reason. ⚖️
