Karnataka High Court replaces 'visitation' with 'parenting time'
Original: Karnataka High Court orders using ‘parenting time’ instead of ‘visitation’ in all child custody cases
The Karnataka High Court has directed that the term 'parenting time' be used instead of 'visitation' in all child custody cases. The change is intended to reflect a more equal, involved role for both parents after separation, rather than framing one parent's contact with the child as a mere visit. The order is drawing attention as a notable shift in how family courts in the state will describe custody arrangements.
Why now: The court's language change in custody proceedings is seen as a meaningful shift in how parental roles are recognised after separation.
