    Default NCP Discouraging Child Contact During Visitation

    My question involves a child custody case from the State of: VA

    My ex and I get along well most of the year, but when his visitation comes along he discourages the children from contacting me. They're in AZ with him for their summer visit and I've barely heard from them. Every once in a while they may send me a text at 3am after he's gone to sleep. Do you have any suggestions about how I could approach this issue? I don't want to make waves, but the kids shouldn't feel like they're not allowed to talk to me either.

    You can try explaining to your ex that the kids have told you that they would like to be able to contact you while they are with their Dad. If you stress that it will make the kids feel better, rather than make you feel better, he might understand. If not, you can let him know that you can always take it to court and have it added to the court order if he doesn't want to cooperate.

    Thanks Xena. I will try your suggestion and see if we can come to an agreement.
