Chicago, IL asked in Family Law for Illinois

Q: Does my daughters father get her for a week.

I have all custody of my almost 12 year old daughter, her non custodial father gets visits. My daughter is out of school this week because its closed due to coronavirus. Shes out of school next week because of spring break, which its my break with her. She's out the following week because of the coronavirus, although they say extended spring break, but her school didnt schedule the third week as a second spring break. My question is do I have to send my daughter to her dads house on the third week to see him altho that week isnt scheduled for him?

A: You need to follow what it says in your parenting agreement. However, in all likelihood it usually is in the child's best interest to be with one of the parents. So in the event that you are not available that week, you should consider the father.
