Re: Children love father, but dont want to visit
The children's wishes are at the bottom of the list as to dedciding if there will be visitation. The judge may listen to to older child but the younger one is not going to have any input in to the decision. My recommendation is to bring the situatino to the judges attention and see what happens.

Tough choices are what judges are paid for. Although the best interests of the children is the standard, visitation will will not be denied. The children's age will prevent their voice from being conclusive.Perhaps other arrangements can be found. I suggest you consult with your attorney and let a judge decide the issue.
