You can file an Order to Show Cause to modify visitation. You can ask for an increased timeshare and for right of first refusal (she has to give you the option to watch your son before she leaves him in someone elses care for more than 4 hours). You can also request an order that you are allowed telephone contact with your son once a day. Good Luck.
