Child visitation in Texas is called ?possession and access,? and each parent, regardless of their conservatorship designation, has the right to possession of and access to their minor child.

Possession order is the court's phrase for parenting time. Sometimes it is also called visitation. Parenting time/possession orders state when the child (ren) will be with each parent or guardian.

A Child Visitation Letter is a document that divorced or separated parents can use to plan a visit with their child or to inform each other of a breach in their visitation agreement. In most instances, the non-custodial parent sends the letter to the custodial parent.

An unfit parent is one who does not or cannot provide his or her children with the care, support and guidance they need. The cause of this lack of care and support must be the parent's fault, i.e., due to a habit or poor treatment of the children.
