Re: moving children to CA.from ID
ID has jurisdiction over the children, if you can't reach an agreement with the father you have to file a court action there. I am a CA lawyer, and don't know what the law on "move aways" is in ID. In CA, it is complex and basically has to do with a court determination of the "best interests of the child(ren." That determination includes consideration of the child(ren)'s wishes, but requires a look that basically compares what would be the situation with you and what would be the situation with him? What's better for the children. Move aways can pose significant court battles.
