A: These are unprecedented times. We have never seen school closures like this before. My best advice is to try to peacefully resolve this. You, your ex, your son: you all have a lot more stress in your daily lives due to the panic over this virus. Why add to it? You should both be engaged in his education. If he is remote learning, he can remote learn with you both. Don't let this be another source of tension. Think of the time out of school as a gift to both of you and try to share it, not fight over it.

Legally, there is no way answer. If the two of you cannot get along, someone files a request with the court to modify your agreement. If you're lucky, you might get a 2021 court date. Life is short. Choose how you spend your time wisely.
