“hi, my step-children live in NJ and my husband and I are in PA. He has joint legal custody of children. my question is, numerous times on the phone and even in writing my husband has asked his ex to stop putting the children in activities that interfere with his visitation without discussing it with him first. they live 1 1/2 hours from us so for us to get them there is extremely hard. can a court force my husband to take them even though he has never agreed to take on that responsibility nor has he has the opportunity to be involved in the decisions of which activities they do? we feel its persistent and wilful interference with his visitation using the activities to entice them to not want to see him for visitation. any suggestions?”

Your husband can file either a motion for modification of visitation, or an order to show cause, and request either that the court a) modify the visitation schedule and during that time order his ex to stop interfering with his timeshare, or b) request that the court order her to stop interfering with his timeshare, respectively.
