What should you do if your 16-year-old does not want to have visitation with his dad in Indiana?

Support and Visitation are separate matters that are addressed separately by the court. However, if you were a participant in a child support case you should have requested a visitation order at the same time. No one is going to do that for you. If you want a visitation schedule with your child then return to the court that issued the child support order and request visitation.

They must follow the visitation schedule.

You made them mad at you. huh? Or your child doesn't want to see you. You should have visitation.

It is not up to the child to EVER decide if they want to go to visitation. Visitation is court ordered and the other parent has the RIGHT to see the child. As long as the visitation order is in effect, the child must go to the visitation. This is because parents plot and scheme and brainwash their children into believing that the other parent is the anti christ (custodial parents). Both parents should be encouraging a productive relationship between any child and their other natural parent. The child can decide to do whatever they want when the court ordered visitation expires or they reach the age of 18.

If the visitation order is violated the father should visit the court and file a motion for contempt of the court order.If the visitation order is violated the father should visit the court and file a motion for contempt of the court order.If the visitation order is violated the father should visit the court and file a motion for contempt of the court order.If the visitation order is violated the father should visit the court and file a motion for contempt of the court order.

Having visitation rights does not compell you to visit, it only means that you have the right to do so if you so desire. So there is no particular advantage to losing visitation rights. If you don't want to visit, don't visit.

That depends on the custody order and the visitation order. However, he should call ahead and let the family know if he decides to exercise his visitation rights after not seeing the child for some time. If he has no visitation rights then it's up to the mother. Either way he should call ahead in case the family has plans.That depends on the custody order and the visitation order.

Grandparents should have the right to have visitation rights because their grandchildren might want to see them. Also when the children have enjoyed a good relationship with their grandparents that is an important part of life and it shouldn't end if the parents divorce or one parent dies.

I do not understand how she could legally could do this. Your settlement agreement should have some visitation allowed. If it does, you can enforce visitation, if the agreement does not allow you to have visitation, you either did something wrong or you sign a lopsided agreement that you will now need to contest. Good Luck

The visitation schedule for the non-custodian parent who does not know the child should start out slow. You may want to stay when the child is with the parent he or she does not know.

No. The mother must obey the visitation order or she will be in contempt of a court order. If the daughter has legitimate reasons why she doesn't want to go then the mother must return to court and request a modification of the visitation order. She should be prepared to provide compelling evidence as to the reasons for the modification and why it would be in the best interest of the child.No. The mother must obey the visitation order or she will be in contempt of a court order.

I would think that depends on what the court has ordered. However - in my oppinnion, a 16-year-old should be mature enough to decide for themselves whether they want to go on visitation visits or not !

Not if the visitation has been ordered by the court. Assuming there are grounds for such, the custodial parent would need to file suit (petition) to have the visitation order amended. The non custodial parent, of course, would have the opportunity to contest the action.

You can ask for whatever you want, but most likely you won't get whatever you want.

What rights do you want?

18.

18. Until that age if the parent has court-ordered visitation it has to be followed. If there is a valid reason (and it must be a very valid reason) the child does not want to visit with the other parent, you need to petition the court to modify the visitation order.

Yes. While the reason the child does not want the visits should be addressed if possible, the custodial parent would be in violation of the visitation order if they stop those visits.

If Dad has court-ordered visitation then you have to follow it or you are in violation of a court order (and there are consequences for that). If there's a valid reason you don't want Dad to have visitation, then you can go to court and request that the court modify the visitation order. But be aware that the court will not do that without a very valid reason.

If you're in the US, the age is 18. Until then, if the parent has court-ordered visitation, it has to be followed. If there is a legitimate reason the child does not want to visit the parent, the custodial parent can petition the court to revise the visitation order. Be aware the court will not deny a parent the right to visitation without a very good reason.

If there is a court order for visitation, yes.

You will want to make sure you are certain of the location and also be aware of the rules regarding contact and visitation.
