Access means the time the non-custodial parent has the child in his or her care.
If a child is at risk in a parent’s care because that parent may be violent, suffers from alcohol or drug addiction, or has health problems which could interfere in his or her ability to care for the child, access may be allowed in a supervised setting.
After separation, if one parent moves out of the home without the child or acquiesces to the other parent relocating with the child, the parent in whose care the child remains has defacto custody and the other parent is entitled to access.
