Can a parent's uncooperative behaviour affect the other parent's right to shared care ?

A parent's uncooperative behaviour can affect the other parent's right to shared care. While the court's primary focus is always on the best interests of the child, a parent's actions can influence the custody arrangement.

Here are some ways a parent's uncooperative behaviour might impact shared care:

  • Hindering Communication
    • If a parent refuses to communicate or makes it difficult to discuss parenting matters, it can create challenges in establishing a shared care arrangement.
  • Denying Access
    • If a parent denies the other parent access to the child, it can be considered a violation of their parental rights and may lead to a modification of the custody arrangement.
  • Alienating the Child
    • If a parent attempts to alienate the child from the other parent, it can harm the child's relationship with both parents.
  • Creating Conflict
    • If a parent consistently creates conflict or makes it difficult to co-parent, it can negatively impact the child's emotional well-being.

However, it's important to note that a parent's right to shared care is not automatically revoked due to the other parent's uncooperative behaviour. The court will carefully consider the specific circumstances and the impact on the child's best interests.

If you're facing challenges related to shared care, it's advisable to consult with a legal professional to discuss your options and protect your parental rights.
