visitation rights
Visitation is also often called parental access. The court tries
to balance the benefit of the child maintaining a relationship with
the non-custodial parent with any possible adverse effects of such a
relationship. These adverse effects can include endangerment to the
child, or the inability of parents to conduct themselves in a civil
manner in the presence of the child.
Many visitation issues can arise after the court has made its
custody determination. The custodial parent, for example, may feel
justified in limiting the non-custodial parent's visitation if the
non-custodial parent is not fulfilling his or her support
obligations. Another example may be a situation in which the
custodial parent has great difficulty reaching the child by
telephone during a visitation period.
It is in everyone's interest to find an equitable, workable
visitation arrangement that minimizes any conflict that may occur
during what will often be years of visitation interaction.
