Q: What are my legal options, to ensure that our children remain healthy and unexposed to Covid?
I have attempted to work out a visitation arrangement with my ex-husband, who's other daughter who lives with him has tested positive for Covid, and he refuses to work with me. We do have a Standard Possession Order currently in place, but Mutual Agreement is also an option. I have asked that those in his home be retested, to ensure our children will not be exposed, and he refuses. I have even offered to switch weekends, to allot for more time to quarantine. He refuses. I have attempted to speak with him regarding this numerous times, and have explained concerns ... he is nonchalant, and does not comply with any resolution attempts. Our 7 year old son is high risk, and has been hospitalized for respiratory issues in the past. He is aware of this, and ignores the potential severity. I do have text messages confirming that his daughter tested positive. What are my legal options, to ensure that our children remain healthy and unexposed?
