A: It sounds like there may very well be grounds to seek a modification. You should consult with a family law attorney regarding the specifics of your case and to potentially seek representation for the modification.

A: You may be able to have the court modify the parenting time schedule. That may result in a change in the child support. You should retain an attorney for this.
