Q: The father is mad at me because I didn't give him up on one of my days
A: David's Answer: If it falls on a day the father has visitation per a court order, then the father gets to decide (assuming there's no corollary provision allowing the child to attend events otherwise scheduled on visit days). You may wish to consider filing a modification petition allowing the child to attend such events on visitation days, so long as the father gets a make-up - or alternatively permitting the father to attend. For a full assessment, schedule a consultation with a Westchester Family Law attorney. -- David Bliven, Westchester Family Law attorney (www.blivenlaw.net
