Can you force your teenager to follow a custody order?

Technically, yes. But when a teenager is refusing visitation, going straight back to court may not be the best answer. Instead, you should ask: Why doesn’t your child want to go?

Understanding the underlying issues, addressing the family dynamic, and considering counseling may do far more for your relationship with your child than trying to force visitation.
Sometimes, the better solution isn’t another trip to court. It’s figuring out what your child is trying to tell you.
