Being the custodial parent, you don’t only have the physical custody of the child, but you get the major responsibility of providing the child’s safe and healthy home, education, and other basic needs. However, this also comes with the obligation to keep the other parent in the loop about the child’s developments and changes that are about to happen. This includes your plan to relocate and take the child with you.
