Syllabus

Trial court did not violate mother's First Amendment rights by terminating shared parenting where decision rested on mother's failure to communicate and cooperate with father about unilateral changes affecting child, not on content of mother's religious beliefs. Trial court did not abuse its discretion in imputing annual income to mother for child support where mother voluntarily quit employment to pursue self-sufficient lifestyle with new husband and made no job search efforts. Trial court did not abuse its discretion in relying on guardian ad litem's report where GAL failed to physically visit mother's home because Superintendence Rule 48 creates only administrative directives, not enforceable procedural rights.

Judges: M. Powell
