The father brought a motion to change a 2003 custody order to change the primary residence of his 13-year-old twin boys from the mother's home to his own.
The mother opposed the motion, citing concerns about the father's parenting ability, alcohol consumption, and past conduct.
The Office of the Children's Lawyer conducted an assessment and recommended the change, noting the boys' strong, independent, and genuine desire to live with their father.
The court found a material change in circumstances and held that respecting the mature children's wishes was in their best interests.
Joint custody was ordered, with primary residence transferred to the father.
