The jurists have agreed upon the right of parents to visit their children who are under the custody of the other parent. The custodian is not permitted to prevent visitation. The father has the right to visit his child with the mother, the custodian, without restriction, and he has the right to care for him, discipline him, and send him to school. Caution must be exercised to avoid seclusion and anything that could lead to what is forbidden during the visit. Your son's father has the right to visit him or to send him to you to spend the night with you, unless you relinquish your right to custody.
