Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the children’s parental authority and custody should be awarded to the father rather than the mother
Decisione estratta
The allocation of parental authority and custody to the mother was upheld as being in the children’s best interests.
Motivazione estratta
Both parents were capable, but the longstanding and severe parental conflict, the children’s loyalty conflict, the mother’s role as the stable reference parent, and continuity of care justified awarding the rights to her.
