visitation rights  

Definición

  • Visitation, also known as access or parenting time, is the time awarded a nonresidential or noncustodial parent after a divorce, when the other parent receives primary residential or custodial responsibility. There is a movement in some states to change statutory language from visitation to parenting time in the belief that the former term implies that a noncustodial or nonresidential parent is merely a visitor in a child's life rather than coequal with the custodial or residential parent.
