QuoteI had a call for some assistance, from a USPA member going through a custody dispute with an ex. The ex told the judge she didnt want him skydiving while he was responsible for the child. The judge bought into it and banned the guy from jumping during visitation. I personally have never heard of such a thing.
How can that be legal. My immediate thoughts are why skydiving? Why not ban him from driving or jogging, or golfing? I dont get it.
Am I completely out of it? Can this be happening out there? A little input would help me help him. I contacted USPA and they had never heard of it happening before.
I didnt even know where to post the question. lol
Skydiving during visitation is not something I have done, but I have taken my kid to the DZ and she had a great time. Considering most of the time spent skydiving is spent on the ground it would be OK provided the kid is adequately supervised when that father is on a load.
This is the key message that he needs to make clear. Sadly custody disputes lead to all sorts of nonsense like this but the judge's concern here would be for the kid, not for the father's right to do what he pleases.
She may have had a valid concern if he was leaving his kid to wander around the DZ while he was on a load, but it sounds more like your usual custody dispute bullshit, with his ex making exaggerated claims about concerns just to stir trouble.
I've never known anyone who ever said, "I wish my parents didn't spend so much time with me when I was young."
