What are a child's rights in a custody case when they have witnessed and have been a victim of abuse?

There is no 'one answer fits all' for such questions. Each case is looked at individually. The rights of the child are protected by the court. It is the responsibility of the adults who care for the child to bring the abuse to the attention of the court and insist that the court appoint an advocate for the child and an investigator to examine the child's experiences and environment. There must always be an adult to help enforce a child's rights.


Is verbal abuse a valid reason to stop my child for his court ordered visitation?

While verbal abuse certainly is not in the best interest of the child, you can't take it upon yourself to go against the orders of the court by refusing the other parent visitation. Doing so would place you in violation of the court, for which you could be charged with "contempt of court". This would certainly be of no help to you, or your child. You need to call your attorney to advise you on how to handle this. But, be prepared to give proof of the verbal abuse, since verbal abuse can be subjective to opinion by the court. Each time you learn of an incident of the verbal abuse, document the date, what was said to the child, and in what context. This will make your case much more credible, should you have to go back to court.
