A: Unless you can reach an agreement (you have the child every Saturday while he is working, he has the child every Sunday), you need to follow the Order, or file a Motion to ask that the Order to be changed. If you file a Motion, you can request to have the right of first refusal, where if he will be away from the child for longer than 3-4 hours, you be allowed to offer care.
