Yes, where else do you expect your children to sleep? I had to have a bed for my child although he/she was living with the other parent so I bet your husband/wife will expect the same from you. You wouldn't expect your children to sleep with you or on the sofa would you? I certainly wouldn't with mine. I'd expect a bed from him/her to sleep in.

Only if it's court ordered. There are no standard laws or rules that govern sleeping arrangements, only that a child be provided with adequate food, clothing shelter and a safe, non-abusive environment.

If the visitation schedule says overnight visitation, yes. The visitation schedule is a court order. If the custodial parent violates the order the non-custodial parent can file a motion for contempt.
