How does visitation work if both parents were granted full custody in AZ but father moves to tx?
Both parents cannot be awarded full custody at the same time, however they may be awarded joint custody. If that is the case, then the parent in Arizona needs to file for a custody/visitation modification based on the father's move, if he doesn't intend to abide by the original agreement. If he does, it is up to him to pay all related expenses in coming to visit his child or taking them to Texas for his parenting time. Also, Arizona law provides that the parent intending to move must file a notice of intent to relocate prior to moving and such a move be approved by the court. If he did not do this, he may have his custodial/visitation rights modified based on the same and your child support increased as a result (you would have to file for modification of this separately).

Will a court give the mom full custody if you move?
The mother has the option to file for modification of the original custody/visitation order if the parent moves or even prevent such a move if state law has that provision, however the other parent has the right to respond to such a motion. Ultimately, the courts want to maintain involvement of both parents in a child's life. If the parent moves and maintains visitation as outlined in the original order on his own dime, there would be no reason to give the mother full custody. However, if the move would make it impossible for the parent to maintain visitation as originally outlined, a modification may be granted.
What to do when the other parent only show's up for visitation sometimes?

If such an order is approved and the custodial arrangement is changed, child support may also be modified based on the same.
