My ex-wife prevents me from having parental time with our minor son, in a free manner. When I visit him in Israel, she only allows me to meet our son at her house, where she keeps an eye on us, and eavesdrops our conversations. Also, she does not allow our son to visit me in Norway, where I live with my new wife. What can I do?
By: דיאנה שאלתיאל•Published on: 20 February, 2025You should file a plea at the Family Court in Israel asking the Court to set parental/visitation time between you and your minor son in Israel and in Norway including virtual communication (i.e. Facetime, WhatsApp, phone etc.) and ask the Court to order your ex-wife not to be present at the times of communication and contact with your son. You may also ask the Court to appoint a social worker to file a report about the family situation and give recommendations accordingly. The Family Court recognizes the right of a minor to have a meaningful and ongoing relationship with both his parents, for the sake of the minor child’s welfare and wellbeing.
