Chapman v. Chapman · 1984 1 citation

The trial court eliminated the requirement that the father take the children to Mass. The parties agreed to this provision in the original stipulation and neither requested that it be eliminated. The mother is particularly concerned that the children attend. As the custodial parent, her wishes on matters of religion must be respected. Minn. Stat. § 518.176 (1979); Auge v. Auge, 334 N.W.2d 393 (Minn.1983). A trial court must defer to a custodial parent’s decisions on health, education and religion unless it determines, after an evi-dentiary hearing, that failure to limit the custodial parent’s authority will endanger the children’s health or development. Auge, 334 N.W.2d at 397. The trial court abused its discretion when, upon its own initiative and without making the requisite findings, it eliminated the requirement that the father take the children to Mass.
