Our court order is silent on make-up time. Can make-up time be an expected part of discussions when parents are making arrangements for changes to the normal custody schedule? Or is it discretionary, or perhaps dependent on the reasons for a parent missing parenting time with the children?
For example, if a parent went away on vacation alone and missed out on time with the children, would they be entitled to make-up time?
If a parent went away on business and missed out on time with the children, would they be entitled to make-up time?
I'm not really asking whether make up time is reasonable based on someone's opinion. I'm asking whether it is expected by court/case law/precedent/standard practice. Basically I'm wondering how hard I can push when asking for make-up time (whether it's a "right") or whether I should be asking pretty please (noting that I'd ask nicely anyway).
Thanks!
