My parenting time order states I have "reasonable visitation rights or reasonable parenting time". What does this mean?

This means the parents have the responsibility for setting up a mutually agreed upon schedule for parenting time, which is reasonable under the circumstances. If the parents cannot mutually agree to a visitation schedule, the following options are available:

  • Contact the other party to see if they will agree to mediation
  • Contact the Friend of the Court and request the Friend of the Court file a petition with the Court to change the order to require a specific schedule
  • File a petition or contact an attorney to help file the petition
