Separation can have a profound impact on young children.
For young children separation anxiety is a very real issue, but separation anxiety fades as children begin to develop an internal sense of constancy in their relationships with their early caregivers. Families are the people who are important to children’s lives whether biological or family members. The biggest separation impact on children is when one of their parents suddenly moves out of the family home. Preparing children for family separation is key and then working out how you will co-parent.
Can a mother or a father stop a child from seeing their parent?
No, a mother or a father cannot stop either parent from seeing their child unless there are special circumstances that put the child’s welfare at risk such as safeguarding concerns. A mother or a father would need to prove to the court that there is a risk to the child’s welfare. Every child has a right to have access to their parents unless is not in their best interest.
