    Default Extended Parenting Time

    Question from Utah.

    I have primary custody of child per temporary orders. Per temporary orders husband has 1 week of extended parent time. Utah State law states he is to give me 30 days notice before exercising his right.

    I was notified 9 days prior to husband exercising parental extended time. In addition, he scheduled extended time to take away from my weekend, and husband will have child for 11 days straight. Child is 2 years old.

    Husband is taking child camping, where large amounts of alcohol are consumed, it is a remote location in northern utah, also there are firearms involved, drunk driving on 4 wheelers.

    I expressed my concern that I did not feel that is an appropriate enviroment for our son, and he said to darn bad.

    I want to know what my rights are. Can he just email me 9 days before and tell me his is taking his extended time. I thought he has to give me 30 days notification.

    I had plans for the weekend my scheduled parenting weekend, with family from out of town, and now, he will be taking son, and my plans are ruined.

    I wrote to husband, and told him that I am not opposed to him exercising his extended time, but that I need at least more than 9 days notification, and that I would like some indication of whereabout he is taking son camping. He said he does not have to tell me anything about where he is taking son. I asked out of common courtesy if he could provide an itinerary, and he said NO.

    any suggestions?

    Default Re: Extended Parenting Time

    He can do whatever the court order requires. I can't read the orders from here.

    If he plans to take the child on a legal vacation where people are engaged in legal activities, that's within his discretion as a parent. You may not like hunting, drinking, or camping, but lots of Americans engage in those activities.

    It's not unreasonable to demand addresses and phone numbers to reach a child during a vacation, and often visitation orders will require the sharing of that information. But again, I cannot read the orders governing your parenting time issues from where I'm sitting.
