violating court ordered visitation?

my 8 yr old's dad has been asking my son to come over to his house outside of normal visitation hours, even when he is not there, but his GF is there alone with her two kids. I see this as a manipulation and control tactic and harassment using my son to get more visitation. Can he do this? it doesn't seem like he should be able to ask my son to repeatedly come over. I even told his dad that I took the day off work to spend with my son and he still asked him if he missed the boys and if he would like to come over.

    It is manipulating the court order and using your son to accomplish it. You have three choices. One, advise your attorney. Two, you could tell your son to tell him no when he asks or you could deal with it. He's his father and if the kid wants to go and play with his half-siblings/other siblings, I don't see anything wrong with that. It may not be what the court ordered but, being too stringent is not going to make it easier on the child. To some degree, go with the flow and be a little flexible.

    Nothing in the visitation mentions not being able to ask. Perhaps a visit or letter to the court about the matter would get you some advice.
