In families with children, generally the primary caretaker stays in the house with the children. Generally that person is the mother but it is not the case at all times. If the physical custody of the children is to be shared between the parents, the closer the non-custodial parent can live, the better for the children. This will cut down on the disruption to their studies and social lives.

If you are seeking sole custody of the children, make sure you don’t move out and leave your children behind. If you leave your children behind, the court may infer that you think your spouse is a good parent who can take care of the children without your help. Generally in all civil litigation judges don’t like to disturb the status quo. So if the children are staying with you when you separated from your spouse, it is likely that the final order will direct likewise.

If you’re expecting to share custody anyway, moving out will not cause any problem. But it is advisable in such cases to get your spouse to sign an agreement that says that your moving out won’t affect later decisions about custody and visitation.
