A High Court judge has sent an 11-year-old girl to live with her mother, reversing the care and control order that the father has to live with the child, post-divorce. But this was not because of the mother’s allegations that the child’s father and his domestic helper...
Justice Choo, who interviewed the girl, said she articulated her opinions with “firmness and maturity” and seems clearly happier to be with her mother.
The father has care and control of the girl after the divorce, while the mother was given “liberal access” to the child. In this case, the arrangement went on for five years until 2021, when the girl went to live with her mother as the mother alleged that the father and his domestic helper had emotionally abused the girl and neglected her.
He said the mother’s claims about the abuse and neglect by the father and his domestic helper seemed “insufficiently proved”. “I thus reversed the care and control not because of the mother’s claims about abuse and neglect, as it seems to be insufficiently proved, but because I think it is in the best interest of the child for her to live with her mother.”
