What is the effect of having two children in the same residence with the same parent?

British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Cizmic v. Cizmic, 2015 BCSC 1430 (CanLII):

In this case, I am faced with a difficult decision similar to that of the trial judge in the case of Falvai v. Falvai, 2008 BCCA 503 [Falvai]. Considering the positions of the parties, I have to determine whether the interests of the children would be best fulfilled by remaining with their mother as their primary caregiver in her new location of Coquitlam, with more limited access to their father, or by residing with their father in Campbell River with more limited access to their mother.
