Atlanta, GA asked in Child Custody and Family Law for Georgia

Q: It’s my ex-husbands weekend for our son. He thinks I need to find childcare on his weekend. Is this true ?

He gets our son from Friday night - Monday morning . I have him Monday - Friday morning . He called me Saturday saying I needed to come pick him up and I explained I had plans for my daughter’s birthday. He’s saying I have to watch him because I’m his mother. I get I’m his mother but I already had this plans in place and he knew that .

A: If he does not appear to exercise his visitation you cannot force him. Therefore, it is likely you will have to keep the child. I would review your court order. This forum is for questions regarding people who haven't been to court and don't know how to address an issue, not those who have an order and want us to interpret the order they are reading in front of them.
