FAQs

At what age can a child choose which parent to live with?

A child is not expected to choose which parent to live with. Instead, professionals work to understand the child’s wishes using therapeutic methods and assessments. These are then considered alongside other factors such as safety, emotional needs and parenting capacity in reaching a recommendation.

Can a residence order be overturned?

Yes, a residence order can be challenged through the legal system if circumstances change. Appeals are handled by the court, but additional assessments may be required. We can carry out updated assessments to assist the court in determining whether a change would be in the child’s best interests.
