Yes, and unfortunately for you, the courts tend to be more hands off with teens when it comes to their attendance at visitation.
As a first step, try to talk to your former spouse and get a feel for whether they’re encouraging your teen to participate.
Talk to your teen and see if they’ll tell you what’s going on.
If you believe your former spouse is discouraging your child from scheduled visitations, we can help you petition a family court judge to intercede and try to change that situation.
If your child is simply “being a teenager,” your legal options may be limited.
The family law attorneys at Friedman & Ranzenhofer help people in Rochester will all kinds of custody situations.
