My question involves a child custody case from the State of: Missouri
My now ex husband was ordered years ago to re-establish a relationship with our child. Our child at the time was two and he had not seen him since he was about nine months old. Custody worked out well, although a part of the arrangement was he was ordered by the court to make his scheduled phone calls three times a week and all his visits or I would have the right to deny future visits. Now he does live in California, and he has said visits of six weeks in the summer and one week at Christmas, he is ordered to fly with my son during any exchanges, as there are too many wackos in the world and I was not sending my son on a plane by himself. Four and half years ago the phone calls stopped, maybe calls a handful of times a year, and he has not visited since then. My son who is now almost 14, will be in December no longer wants to go to California. So my question is, what do I do? Being that my parenting plan states he HAS to make 85 percent of his phone calls, and all his scheduled visits, can I deny further visits and not get into trouble by the court? I am not going to make my child go 2000 miles away from home, if he does not want to. End of story.
