Divorce/chid custody and responsibility

Question

A judgement is passed that the mother has custody of a child while the father has visitation rights and is responsible for the child welfare, maintenance, education etc. but the father is only responsible for the child's education leaving other responsibilities for the mother, is it possible for the mother to  file for sole responsibility of the child especially if the mother is relocating and plan to travel with the child

She cannot travel out without the written consent of the father. You need to contact a family lawyer quickly to advise you on the area of legal custody of the child.

En temas del derecho de menores, no es posible que, de forma unilateral, la madre pueda decidir sacar al niño del país sin consentimiento del padre. Dependiendo de la legislación del país donde se encuentre, existen varios requisitos para hacerlo. En el caso de que la madre solicite por vía judicial la autorización (siempre y cuando la legislación del país en el que están lo permita), o por otro lado pedir lo que se conoce como patria potestad del menor; si el juez concede esto podría tomar la decisión sin la autorización del padre.
