If the mother is interfering with visitation by enrolling the children in activities how will the courts in Florida look at this?
The courts are REQUIRED by law to soley look after the interests of the child; not the parent(s). If the courts determine that it is in the best interests of the child to have access to you, they'll come down on the mother; if they decide it's in the best interests of the child to go to these activities then you'll lose. The child is the important one, not the warring parents.

If, however, both parents are not amenable to the decision to move, a parent would have to petition the court for a change in custody orders.

How do the courts decide who the primary care giver is?
Courts typically decide who the primary caregiver is based on factors such as the amount of time each parent spends with the child, who handles their daily needs, who is more involved in their upbringing, and who has historically taken on the primary caregiving responsibilities. The best interests of the child are always the priority in these decisions.
