I have custody (or joint custody) can he/she stop me from moving?”
The answer like so many things is “it depends.” In law school, every time a member of the class asks the professor a question, his answer is invariably “it depends.” This is a frustrating answer for law students wanting a straight answer. After years of legal practice, I have subsequently learned that “it depends,” is a straight answer! The courts cannot “keep” you from moving, because it would be unconstitutional. What the courts can do is keep you from moving with the child, or require that you return with the child after the fact.

Supervised visitation – The parent and child are accompanied by a court-appointed observer to guard against any physical and / or verbal abuse
Supervised exchange – The child is brought to a place where the parents can exchange custody without the parents having to see each other
Evaluation-based visitation – The parent and child interaction is observed discreetly ( such as, through a 2-way mirror ) to evaluate the nature of the parent / child relationship and any risk of abuse

Avoid Unhappy Holidays - Child Custody Lawyer Frederick Md

The Family Court works under a presumption that holidays should be shared, usually by alternating who has the child(ren) during school breaks and holidays. Let’s deal with the easy holiday first. Father’s Day is with Father and Mother’s Day is with Mother. If that is not a rule you can live by, you need to re-evaluate your thinking.

Believe it or not, Christmas is the second easiest holiday to deal with once you get the rules down. With Christmas, there is a growing trend for the parents to alternate “Christmas A” and “Christmas B.”

This concept is structured under the idea that the predominant Christmas ritual with children is on Christmas morning.
