The parenting time guidelines require you to pick them up at the end of visitation. Unless specifically ordered to handle the tranportation for their return, you were in the wrong, not him. As to the other problems you are having with him, they would be best handled by hiring an attorney to bring these facts to the court. It is difficult to believe that the judge would allow unsupervised visits with the children that a felon has battered, and an attorney can best bring those facts to the court's attention.
