l) Custodial Parent's Vacation. Unless otherwise specified, the custodial parent
shall be entitled to a period of vacation with the children no less than that
accorded the non-custodial parent, whose visitation shall abate during the first
fourteen days thereof, and thereafter only so long as distance makes visitation
impracticable.
m) Caretaker Provision. As a general rule, each parent shall have the right of first
refusal for childcare or baby sitting needs of the other parent for durations of four
hours or more. Whenever either parent has a need for child care or baby sitting
for a duration of four hours or more, that parent should always make a good faith
attempt first to inquire of the other parent, with as much advance notice as
reasonably possible, whether the other parent desires to provide child care or baby
sitting. The other parent is under no obligation to provide the childcare or baby
sitting. If the other parent elects to provide such childcare or baby sitting, it shall
be done at no cost. This provision is intended to provide each parent additional
access to the children whenever reasonably possible.
n) Telephone and Mail Privileges. Each parent shall allow liberal and reasonable
telephone and mail privileges with the children.
o) Medical Reports and Bills. The Custodial parent shall provide copies of all
medical information, and documentation, including bins, within seven (7) days of
their receipt and shall immediately notify the other parent in the event of a
medical emergency. Every effort shall be made for the custodial parent to provide
the non-custodial parent with the necessary information of a medical expense in
order to get the bin satisfied. The parent with the medical insurance shall provide
the other parent with a copy of the explanation of benefits with seven (7) days
from the date of receipt of same so that the uninsured portion of the bill can be
quickly calculated and paid within a reasonable period of time.
p) Abatement of Support During Extended Visitation. If the non-custodial
parent's support obligation is current, support shall abate by 50 percent during any
visitation of seven (7) consecutive days or more. If support is not current, the 50
percent that would have been abated shall be paid and shall apply to the existing
arrearage. (Commentary: If the custodial parent actually receives the fun amount
of child support during this period and if support is current, it is the custodial
parent's obligation to refund the money immediately to the non-custodial parent.
This alleviates many of the problems that arise when wage-withholding orders
have been issued.)
q) Modification. If the parties mutually agree permanently to change the provisions
of their decree of divorce, they must petition the Court to approve and order that
change. In the event that the parties do not obtain a court order, the Court win not
be bound by any alleged agreement of the parties.
