:Document incidents miticulouly on paper and preferrably have credible witnesses present at the time the exchange is supposed to occur. Unless you are certain the child is in immediate physical danger, do not involve law enforcement in the presence of the child/children.

After compiling documentation, hire an exceptional attorney and take the ex to court.

Judges are more inclinded to assist you if you have documentation and witnesses. Judges also will appreciate the fact that you went out of your way to not disrupt the child's life by involving law enforcement in the presence of the child. Having a cop tell either mom or dad that they cannot pick up or take a child is devistating to a child under any circumstances. Don't fall into the trap of using the children even if it is obvious that your ex is doing just that. Don't stoop to that level. Your child/children will eventually know the facts.

Take him to court! (Have you tried talking to him and asking? If so, and he said no, then you have to take him to court. If there is an order he has to listen to it.)

In some states the parent can contact the department of family and children's services to help enforce the visitation order in most states he or she will need to return to court and request the order be enforced. The custodial parent who denies visitation when there is a court order in affect can be charged with contempt and may be placing their custodial rights in jeopardy depending upon the circumstances.

Legally, there is little that can be done, however you could contact a local fathers rights group to send some members over to have a talk with him. I've done that numerous times in the Kansas City area.

What if it is the mother that is the non-custodial parent?

The situation should be reported to the court immediately by filing a motion for contempt of a court order against the other parent. You should visit the court and ask to speak with an advocate or consult with a private attorney who can review your situation and explain your options.

It depends on the details. If the parent is taking the child but not picking the child up and returning him at the stated times then you can file a motion for contempt of a court order. If the parent is not exercising the visitation rights there is little you can do.
