Alfred Ip and Carly Fan discuss issues concerning children custody and considerations that are taken in order to put the interests and well-being of the children first, including in situations that might require their relocation to another country. They also talk about protecting children from the mental health impacts that divorce proceedings often have on them and the benefits that a co-parenting coordinator might be able to bring to divorcing spouses and, ultimately, to the whole family.
