with hold the child from the non-custodial parent due to a broken arm? My step son broke his arm Monday, had a couple pins put in and a splint put on yesterday morning. His mother is denying my husband visitaton for 2 weeks due to the broken arm. However, she is sending him back to daycare where this among many other injurys have occured. Is it wrong of us to assume that it is wrong of her to allow him to go to daycare where he could get hurt but deny us visits where he would be under constant care? Can she legally do this? I asked this question under law and ethics but only recieved one answer. Any help would be appreciated.

She stated she has the right to stop visitation because its a medical reason. Since its just a broken arm I would think the standard visitation would apply.

Child support has never been late and over the last years we have only missed one visitaion because our car was in the shop. My husband and I spoke to my step sons mother about the day care. She stated I know nothing about daycares and she interviewed them before he enrolled and that I could never be as good of a parent as her. My step son comes home at least once a month with a busted lip, losts of bruises and cuts. Now his arm is broken. We think he needs a new daycare but she has control over that.

NO, you need to insist on your normal visitation, or threaten to take her back to court and do it if she does not comply other wise this will become a habit, you must stop it now, i think she is related to my husbands ex, court orders is all she will respond to, she wants to show her power, do not let her, these woman have to learn to put the children ahead of there hate and anger

I don't mean to get into anyones business but It would seem obvious that the daycare worker could be doing this. There are some cruel day cares out there and some of them give drugs to little kids that don't know any better some beat the children I was just giving you a little idea you said that this among many other injury's have occured there she should just sit down and think about it It doesn't take much. I don't think she can stop anyone from seeing the child as long as your paying child support.

Better yet, have your husband file a complaint with child protection services against the daycare since your step son is getting injured at the day care. This is unacceptable as someone is not doing their job and supervising the children if their injuries are resulting in broken bones. An occasional bump or bruise can happen, but not repeated injuries.
And no, she cannot keep you and your husband from having visiting privileges.

It depends on if you have court ordered visits or not. if you have court ordered visition then not she can't do it by law, and all he can do is file a complaint with the courts and after 2 complaints she can get into trouble with the courts. i know the ansawer to this cause i am going throught the same thing with my childs father. but if you think that he is being hurt much more then a child should be and hes in child care or at home i would have an investigaion done on why he is really getting hurt so much. it could be much more then you think it really is. i hope you the best, and he does what he as to for his visits, theres many fathers out there that don't want anything to do with there children now days.

In WI: If the non custodial parent will not / cannot spend time with the child & will be living in a home other than the home of which the children reside. NO! Thats why they have custodial parents. BUT: The child has the right to choose when they turn 16.

As a custodial parent...technically she has the final say. I hate to say that but it is like that in my papers. Although...this really isn't a justifiable reason so to speak therefore you and your hubby might be able to hold her in contempt of court if she is violating the custody papers. I think I would ask your attorney about that. As far as the daycare goes....REPORT IT!!! Not to sound nosy but .....are you sure all this stuff is coming from daycare? I know that is a horrible thought but sometimes you have to step out of the box and look closer at things inside of it. Know what I mean? Anyway good luck!!

usually you can contact a child support visitation hotline. lawyers answer the phone and can give you legal advise. or you can meet with a lawyer and ask for advise, a free legal consultation if you will. she cannot legally keep him from your husband unless she thinks he may harm him. without threatening her, you can pick up your (step)son with the escort of a police man. if you are willing to go that route. i found a child support visitation hotline through the attorney general's child support internet website.

Well.no she can't. If you have a certified copy of the custody order he can go to the police and ask them to enforce the decree. Or else your husband could just offer to have the both of you come over and visit him at her house. That might loosen her up...Tongue in cheek.

No she can not. Contact the court and let them know she is in violation of the visitation order or just get him to tell her he is going to and see what happens first
