This response to your question should not replace the legal advice you receive during an in office consultation with an attorney skilled in the area of family law.

The CA courts adheres to a family law policy that supports frequent and ongoing contact between a child and the non-custodial parent. If there is emotional or physical abuse issue then a return to court asking the judge to limit or suspend contact would be in order.
