You should never allow your child to decide whether he or she will exercise parenting time (formerly known as visitation). You have the obligation to facilitate and encourage parenting time between your child and the other parent. If your child is refusing to visit the other parent, you should find out the cause of the objection so that it can be professionally addressed through child counseling or other avenues. <br /> <br />If you have questions about parenting time, contact the DuPage County child custody lawyers at Mirabella, Kincaid, Frederick & Mirabella, LLC.
