Want this question answered?
Certainly.
if the child doesn't want to see the noncustodial parent he doesn't have too. don't force him to do it =)
No. And it's the parents job to make sure the court order is followed.
Absolutely not. This is dangerous and irresponsible. If it continues, you will want to return to court to restrict or discontinue the NCP's visitation rights.
That would have to be a decision of the court.
Yes. If she is refusing it's time to find out why.
No, and no can he, so there must be a greater issue related here as to the safety of the children. As for being in arrears, in this economy that comes as no shock as men do not know there is free legal help to avoid or reduce arrears from the government. That is what I teach them.
To change the court order your parents have to go back to the court where it was issued. Then you can tell the judge what you want and a new court order will be made.
18. Until that age, the court order must be followed (and I'm assuming there is a court order for visitation). The child does not have the option of refusing. If there is a *legitimate* reason that the child does not want to have contact with the parent, then the custodial parents needs to go back to court and request that the court order be modified.
You'd be a terrible parent if you did
These are set out in the child support order. One thing to remember, the custodial parent is also obligated to spend the same percentage of income on the child, but are not required to prove it, so most often refuse to do so. Best option is using a trust fund. see link below.
Depends on what the div. settlement says but the real question is WHY does she refuse to spend the Summer with her Dad?
