If no legal order is in place, now would be a good time to file for one to protect the rights of everyone involved.

Since a Child Support Order is a Court Order the Court can change their Order as they see fit, regardless of what the Non-custodial parent, or the custodial parent think. The Court does not need your "consent" to issue an order. The Non-custodial and custodial parent would receive notice of a Court hearing or administrative hearing prior to any changes being made to the Court's Order, so it is important to show up to the hearing! This is not to be construed as legal advice, always seek the advise of an attorney to preserve your rights.

The terms of visitation should have been determined before divorce proceedings and finalized when the divorce decree was awarded.
