Did You Know?    
 
 
Child Custody "Reasonable visitation" is usually the first option given to the noncustodial parent.
Reasonable visitation is often the most practical solution because it allows the two parents to create a flexible visitation plan that works with both their own and their children’s schedule. Reasonable visitation works best when the parents are able to maintain a civil relationship with one another.
