Hello, you have the right to fair and equal parenting time with the child/children. However, depending on your current situation and background with CPS, ACS, DHS etc will impact on your utilizing of rights. Of course, the courts and agencies want the child to be in a safe and comfortable environment. Therefore, if you can demonstrate such with the help of a competent and aggressive lawyer you can get what you want. When children services agencies are involved anything you do regarding your children custody, visitation, child support, or parenting time, might interfere with the agencies. You don't have to fight with the agencies alone. A knowledgeable and competent attorney can do that for you with you.
