    Default Out of Town Trips with Non Custodial Parent

    My question involves a child custody case from the State of: Virginia
    I am about to go through a custody battle with my ex for our two boys age 5 and 1 month. Me and the boys reside in VA but he is from FL. and currently living in VA as well. His main request is for the kids to go to Fl often to see his family. How do I request that no out of town trips be taken during visitation.

    What reason do you have for preventing such trips?

    He works in the military he would take the 12 hour trip right after work with no sleep. Having a trip with 2 kids would be extremely difficult. When he has our oldest son he drops them off with family and spends no time with. I would worry for my children safety

    How do you know this? Can you prove that this is actually endangering the kids?

    It's going to happen. Perhaps not right now - but hon, you really need to get used to that fact. You can't control what Dad does during his parenting time unless you can prove to the court that the kids are DIRECTLY endangered.

    No time at all?

    I actually have proof by recording a conversation but i doubt i would be able to introduce the proof to the judge. He stated that he wanted to go out f town with the kids and wanted to let his mother keep them for two weeks. Then he would go back and get them. I told him that i had no problem with his mom seeing the kids but why leave the kids with her for 2wks. He then stated that he would leave as soon as he got off of a twelve hour shift. I asked him to get rest or I could help him drive he refused for me to come help. He stated that he has taken the trip a million of times coming straight from work b4 and that his mom has every right to see her grandchildren, and after the court he could go back in fourth anytime he see them for visitation. I am trying to be open to visitation but a situation where out of town is concerned makes the whole situation difficult. Is it a waste of time me recording or could this stop the judge for ruling on out of town visits.

    Did ex live with the 1month old? If not, that is where your focus is...it is unlikely that the judge will allow him to take a child that young away from his primary caregiver for 2 weeks. With infants, short frequent visits are favored.
