Legal Question in Family Law in California
My ex-wife continues to attempt to dictate who I can and can't take my son to visit on my scheduled visitation day's. She doesn't have contact with her parents becuase of the divorce but I remain in contact with them. I occasionally take my son there because I belive it to be in his best interest to see them. She continues to tell me that it is making him very emotional by taking him there and that her parents are telling my son bad things about her and he is being instructed not to tell her. I don't belive this to be true because I am present during the visits. Can she dictate who I can and can't take him to see? She is also making the comment of "I'm logging all of these incidents down" to me as a possible threat of evidence. I imagine that she plans to use these one day when I go to modify the custody.
Right now I get my son on my day's off (two day's a week). How hard would it be to have that adjusted to 3 day's a week?

You have the right to decide where to take you child during your visit, unless the court makes an order restricting where you can take your son. However, you would be well advised to carefully analyze her complaints. That is talk to his school teacher and others about his conduct on the days after the visit with the maternal grandparents. If your son is exhibiting the conduct that the ex is referring to then you may have a problem if you continue to take him to visit the maternal grandparents.
