Best Answer

The best age to explain the concept of an absent parent to a child is typically around 6 to 8 years old. At this age, children are more able to understand complex emotions and concepts, and can begin to process and cope with the idea of an absent parent. It is important to approach the conversation with sensitivity and honesty, and to provide support and reassurance to the child throughout the discussion.

Can the courts force a child to vist a non custodial parent?

No one can "force" you to visit your child, although refusing visitation would likely have negative consequences like the loss of visitation rights in the future and the loss of parental rights as far as decision-making (also the loss of the love of your child!!!). Refusing visitation will not reduce or eliminate your child support obligations; in fact, the custodial parent would have a much stronger case if they requested an increase in support and could show the judge that you are not contributing in other ways to the child's well-being.
