I moved out of state about 2 years ago and the visitation has not changed. I am to have my daughter who is 13 for 4 weeks in the summer. She has stated repeatedly that she wants to come out but according to her dad and step mom she doesn't. I go home (1200 miles) every 2 months to visit and also spend long holidays at home so I can see her. She did not come out last summer because her dad said the same thing and I believed him but later found out that they did not want her coming here and conviced her that if she came I wouldn't spend any time with her and scared her in that is was so far away. She can be home in 2 hours by plane. I have stated she can go home when ever she wants. I am unsure of what to do. I rearranged my work schedule to only work half days and she can come to work with me. I have met families with daughters her age so she can get to know some girls her own age her.
My main question is can I make her come out here legally cause it is in the court documents that she is to spend summers with me.
If anyone can give me advice on this I would appreciate it.
Thank You
