A: Without a court order, there is not much you can do if you are married. If you file for divorce or legal separation, the court will decide the issue of child custody and will issue an order regarding parenting. Then if one parent doesn't follow the order, the other parent can file for contempt. Use the Find a Lawyer tab to retain a local family law attorney.
