Welfare of the children required sole custody to father because the children (son aged 16, daughter aged 10) unequivocally wished to live with him; independent social investigation and clinical psychologist found closer relationships with father and that mother’s corporal punishment and a witnessed violent incident had produced deep-seated hostility; splitting custody would separate siblings and be detrimental; therefore sole custody to father with initially supervised access to mother and a 12‑month supervision order best serves the children’s welfare.
