I think it depends on the state. While most states' divorce laws are similar, they aren't completely the same. However, I do think that, in all states, the custodial parent has the responsibility to make sure the kids get to the non-custodial parent's house for visitation, provided that the NCP is a good parent that doesn't pose a threat to or abuse the children. Before withholding visitation, if something the NCP does (i.e. not strapping the child in the car right) worries the CP, then the CP should talk to their attorney to see what theor options are. Withholding visitation without legal backing can come back to bite the CP who does so in the butt.
No, the child goes into the care of custodial parents relatives. A motion for emergency change of custody is required. see my profile.
depends if they pay child support. if they do then yes because kids clothing is not cheap
If both of the parents have a joint legal custody arrangement, you have to give the noncustodial parent that information. If you have sole custody of the child, you do not have to share that information with the noncustodial parent.
Only if the court mandates it. It would be a good idea.
Usually no, you can ask for a trust to be set up in the event that the non custodial parent dies, but you can not require a life insurance policy to be created with the child as the sole beneficiary. In this case, the non-custodial parent can choose anyone they want to. If you are worried about the noncustodial parent dying, I would suggest asking for a trust to be set up. he/she is not required to do it, as I have never heard of a court requiring that.Another PerspectiveLife insurance is usually made a part of separation agreements when the parents are represented by competent counsel. It is not unusual at all for custodial parents to be concerned that life insurance be maintained with the custodial parent or child being the beneficiary. Even if the parents divorce, the child should enjoy the benefits of having two parents since they brought her into the world and are responsible for her support. Whenever possible a minor child should have the benefit of life insurance to pay for support and education expenses in case either parent dies unexpectedly.
It depends on the state. If your state calculates child support based on household income, then yes, she would be required to pay her husband's child support. If your state calculates child support based on only the non-custodial parent's income, then no, should would not be required to pay. However, her husband would still owe that money, and it will continue to accumulate as a debt until he pays it.
These are set out in the child support order. One thing to remember, the custodial parent is also obligated to spend the same percentage of income on the child, but are not required to prove it, so most often refuse to do so. Best option is using a trust fund. see link below.

This teenager did not get a license from the non-custodial parent. He got it from the State. And if he is licensed and resides in your household, your insurance company needs to know. He just might have to drive you to the ER or something.
Contempt of Court, which is consider a Change of Circumstances as regards a custody change. see link below
In very basic terms the noncustodial parent is only required to pay child support and for the child's needs when in their care so no legally does not need to pay half of anything else the custodial parent wants for their child but morally does your child need braces because of medical reasons (as apposed to cosmetic reasons)? Can the other parent not afford them by themselves? This is your decision unless the custodial parent went through their lawyers to see if they could get a court order to get you to pay but I dont think that would happen as that costs a lot of money in itself.
This should be outlined in your custody and child support agreement. The custody agreement should specify which parent is required to provide medical and dental insurance. Some states even require that both parents provide insurance for the child if it's available. Check your custody agreement. If it does not specify which parent is required to provide the insurance, typically the custodial parent will pay the bill and the non-custodial parent will reimburse them for half.
