Section 7 expenses are special or extraordinary costs that aren’t covered in basic child support payments.

They include things such as tutoring, braces and child care, but they are only ordered by the court if they’re deemed necessary, reasonable or consistent with the child’s lifestyle. Parents generally share the cost of Section 7 expenses based on income.

Couples often start out with the best of intentions to separate as amicably as possible, but that can change.

If your former spouse is acting in bad faith or behaving unreasonably, it will lengthen the resolution process, create more stress for you and your family and add to your legal fees as your lawyer will have to spend additional time to deal with these issues.

It will also take money away from the family’s resources that could be better spent on you and your family.

Parents contemplating divorce — or already going through one — should consider the toll it can take on a child’s mental health.

Specifically, research shows separation and divorce can lead to academic issues, conduct issues, risk-taking behaviour, depression and anxiety in kids.

To mitigate the risk, take steps to make sure your children feel safe, maintain a healthy relationship with them and help them develop coping skills.

A divorced parent who wants to relocate with their children must obtain the other parent's permission. If the other parent objects, the moving parent will have to demonstrate to the court that the move is in the best interests of the children.

There are a wide range of factors involved in determining a child's best interests, including the existing parenting time and decision-making authority arrangements, the relationship between the children and each parent, the children's views, the reason for the move and the amount of disruption it will cause the child.
