When the ex twists the custody order.

Custody orders are not a matter of opinion. A parenting plan is an enforceable legal document that protects both parents' legal parenting rights. One parent cannot legally make arbitrary, unilateral decisions that affect the other parent's visitation time; that would be a violation of the custody order. And you have the legal right to report that to the court by filing contempt.Ideally though, your custody orders shouldn’t be so vague that they leave room for a toxic ex to willfully misinterpret them. A lot of lawyers don’t understand how important this is however, so they keep on writing poorly-worded parenting plans. Yikes. 😱If your high-conflict ex is a pro at twisting your legal paperwork around so it always seems to work in their favor, please go grab our conflict-reducing parenting plan checklist. Because the ex is NOT in charge of interpreting your custody orders… no matter how much they’d like you to believe otherwise. xo--🧡 Need a bigger pep talk?
