Allowed to Travel but Not to Get My Children

My question involves criminal law for the state of: Wyoming. I am currently on probation and I have been given travel passes in the past for things like fishing but last month I was denied a travel pass to pick up my children, which to me seems more important than fishing. I have an eatablished court order that outlines my visitation with the kiddos. My ex wife is currently in contempt of that order but the police department in arvada Colorado are completely willing to enforce the order and provide me with a civil assist when or if I can get there. Its frustrating being turned down for this and I feel like probation has overstepped their bounds and have unduly denied me my right to see my children. I feel this may be a civil liberties issue as well. Any thoughts on this situation and what i can do next.
P.s. my probation has nothing to do with my ex or my children what so ever.

We have no context here. We don't know your record, and we don't know why your probation officer denied your request. You should discuss your situation with a criminal defense lawyer in your state to see if it makes sense to try to get the probation officer to reconsider, to go to the probation officer's supervisor, or to bring a motion before the sentencing court.

Your probation officer is not required to allow you permission to leave the state for convenience.

I am aware of this but as a point of context I have been given several passes to travel and one was to even to go to las Vegas. I have been on probation for three years without a single problem. It seems odd that this should be the one pass they deny, I have done everything right I just want to end a year long absence from my children's life.

For context for #2 I have a property distraction and agg assault but I had contact and joint coustidy with my ex for the first two years of probation with my pos full support it was only when my ex violated the court order was I denied a travel pass.

The Right to Direct the Upbringing of One's Own Child, otherwise known as the Parental Liberty Doctrine, is a crucial civil liberty. It includes direction of a child's education, health care, lifestyle, regimen, religious observance, and discipline. The characterization of the liberty as "fundamental" under the substantive due process of the Fourteenth Amendment of the United States Constitution makes an enormous practical difference to home educators and court litigants.

You'll go exactly nowhere if you try that.

Sorry.

If I had to guess, it involved advising you wanted to trot off to Colorado to engage the police in a hostile action.

It was my idea to have the police acconampany me. In a civil assist role to keep things calm As possible and on the record. My p.o.'s suggestion was that I call my ex and get permission to go get my girls. If I had her number or permission to get the children she wouldn't have been found in contempt. My p.o. also advised me to contact her myself in person, I know this is a bad idea and for my own safety wouldn't put myself in that situation. I have done everything I can legally and have had her found in contempt, and had my order upheld. I just need to be able to collect my kids and I have the police department willing to enforce the order contingent on my presence. Idk what to do.

Wait until your probation is over.

That isn't until 2017 and I've already missed one solid year with my girls. Dang this is very discouraging

This is what is commonly known as "facing the consequences of our actions".
