October 31, 2025 – Temporary Mental Health Breakdowns

“Counsel points to the comments of Justice Jain at paragraph 25 of Simcoe Muskoka Child, Youth and Family Services v. J.K et al, 2021 ONSC 1855, in which Her Honour confirmed that a temporary mental health breakdown does not pose a risk to the children if: concerns are being appropriately addressed; the parent is able to care for the child safely; and there is a safety plan in place.  I agree with this analysis.”
