Definition of Reasonable Visitation

If a parent does not have primary custody of the children, a visitation schedule is typically drawn up. Reasonable visitation means that the parents can work together to determine a schedule that includes some flexibility.

The parent with primary custody often has more control over the following:

• Dates of the visits
• Times of the visits
• Duration of the visits

It is important to realize that judges do take note if the custodial parent is acting vindictively towards the other parent and is not flexible. In addition, if one parent has a pattern of being late to visits or missing visits altogether, a different solution may need to be reached.

Definition of Fixed Visitation

In some cases, a fixed visitation schedule is drawn up with the court. This is often used when the parents are hostile with each other and when it is in the best interests of the child to have a predictable schedule with one or both parents.
