Child visitation rights: what are your rights?

Questioner

Arrangements for contact with the children. Can the mother demand that the father may only visit the children at her home. Her argument is the age, namely a boy of almost 2 years and a girl of 3 months. The father obviously wants the children to come to his home and his family.

Lawyer

The mother cannot enforce this, unless there is a valid reason to choose to do so, etc. Of course, all of this must be pronounced by the judge or recorded in a parenting plan.

Lawyer

Mother may want this but she cannot enforce it. In principle, father has an independent right to contact with his children and can also take the children with him, unless there are contraindications, to realize the contact. Of course, it will have to be considered what the children need in terms of care. This is in view of the age of the youngest child in particular. It is important to arrange these kinds of matters properly from the start. If you wish, I can assist him in requesting a fixed contact arrangement. This can be done by submitting a petition to the court. It is possible that other matters concerning the children will also have to be arranged, such as custody. If you have further questions or wish for assistance, you can contact me.
