HemisFair 1968 is an interna-
tional exposition which has the
official sanction of the Bureau
of International Expositions,
representing 32 nations with
headquarters in Paris, France.
’Construction is underway on 92
acres in downtown S’an Anto-
nio, just two blocks from the
Alamo. Under the guidance and
control of HemisFair planners,
the exposition site will be a
physical extension of the Fair’s
avowed dedication to its theme, j
“The Confluence of Civilizations
in the Americas.”
THE f
FAMILY#
LAWYER „
VISITATION RIGHTS
When Alice divorced Jim, she
was given custody of their
three-year-old son. However,
Jim had visitation rights every
Sunday afternoon. He would
call for the hoy at 3 p.m., take
him out for a few hours, and
then return him at dinner time.
But one thing rankled Alice.
“It’s those between - meal
snacks,” she complained in a
court hearing. “Jim never fails
to feed the hoy something while
they are out. That is bad for
his health. Therefore, I would
like to have Jim’s visitation
rights ended.”
But the court decided her
complaint was not serious
enough to justify such drastic
action, that the “punishment”
was too great for the “crime.”
Generally speaking, the law
prefers.—primarily for the sake
of the child—to keep parental
ties intact. While visitation
rights are often modified, they
will not he cut off altogether
without a compelling reason.
What is a compelling reason?
Here are three cases in which
the court did decide to bring
parental visits to an end:
(1) an embittered father
made a calculated attempt,
during these visits, to turn the
child’s love for his mother into
hatred;'
(2) a quarrelsome mother
used her visits to create vio-
lent scenes that left her small
daughter in torment;
’(3) a hard-drinking father not
only used vile language to his
three young children but also
plied them with whiskey.
But minor grievances — such
as a mother’s complaint that
the father’s visits “annoyed”
her—won’t suffice. Furthermore
a court that does cut off visi-
tation rights may well restore
them later if the offending par-
ent mends his ways.
For example:'
A court revoked its ban
against a mother who, although
once an alcoholic, had quit
drinking, found a good job, and
gained a respected place in the
community.
In fact, even if a parent has
been barred because of flag-
rant adultery, visitation rights
may be restored when there is
enough evidence of reform and
repentance.
Thus, an adulterous mother
who remarried and led a blame-
less life for several years was
able to regain the right to visit
her children. The court said:
“A child’s welfare is best
subserved by fostering the vir-
tue of filial piety, even toward
a parent who once had erred,
hut who has long since reform-
ed.”
