How much contact should children with each of their parents have with one parent during a separation?

British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from M. v. M., 2010 BCSC 1826 (CanLII):

This factor does not mean however that using the criteria established in Robinson v. Filyk, supra, that the children should be deprived of as much contact with each of their parents as is reasonably possible while continuing at the same time to be in their best interests.

In Marino v. Marino, 2008 BCSC 1402, Mr. Justice N. Smith, in my view, correctly stated this with respect to whether or not I should deal at length with respect to the very private issues that involve the parties to this litigation when he stated at para. 12:
