In California, minors do not have the legal right to stop visitation with a parent until they reach the age of majority, which is 18. Parents or guardians are responsible for making visitation arrangements until the child turns 18.
When both parents agree that the child may make the choice. Usually, this is around the teen years, when school activities and homework take more time. Both parents need to discuss this, with a mediator if necessary. It is important.AnswerIf the parent with visitation rights does not agree to a modification of the visitation schedule, a child cannot legally make that decision until they are at least eighteen years of age. If there is a visitation order issued by a court it must be obeyed or the non-custodial parent can return to court and file a motion for contempt against the custodial parent.If the parents do not agree, the custodial parent must return to court and seek a modification of the visitation order. The court will review the petition and render a decision.
You have to be 18 years old.
No, you must establish your paternity legally in order to obtain parental rights such as visitation rights, custody rights and the right to support your child until they reach the age of majority. If you have established paternity by a DNA test, then you can petition the court for visitation.
Yes. The non custodial parent has every right to see his or her child. And there is a huge misconception that a child can decide which parent they prefer to live with or decide they don't want to visit the other parent when they reach a certain age. The fact is, it is NOT the child's decision to make, but the judge's.So unless the non custodial parent has been found unfit, abusive, etc., the child has to concede to the visitation rights.Furthermore, the custodial parent should encourage the child to want to visit with the other parent. Children need both parents, and no parent should ever be deprived of spending time with their child unless they are unfit, abusive, etc.
The minor can not decide until he is 18.
Though not specifically applicable to the UK, the arguments in this regard are important. See link
at what age can my child stop going for visitation ??
Visitation is not based on any particular age.
Same as any other age: 1) establish paternity; 2) pay support; 3) visitation
The specific regulations and guidelines outlined in the Arkansas child visitation laws include determining visitation schedules based on the best interests of the child, allowing non-custodial parents reasonable visitation rights, and considering factors such as the child's age and relationship with each parent. The laws also address supervised visitation when necessary and provide mechanisms for modifying visitation arrangements.
