Making Arrangements for Vacations

As long as you have joint custody of your child or children, you typically have the legal right to take them on a vacation. However, you must first draft a vacation agreement with your child’s other parent that will take the place of the original custody arrangement for the time of the trip. This agreement should generally include the following:

• Departure and arrival time of the trip
• Trip location(s)
• Itinerary of activities you will be participating in
• Approval from other parent

If you feel as if your child’s other parent is unfairly preventing your vacation, you can seek the help of an Orlando custody attorney to defend your rights.
