Overnights appropriate with gay parent

Where the trial court made no finding that father's conduct in his homosexual lifestyle endangered the child or impaired the child's emotional development, father could not be precluded from having overnight guests during his parenting time or taking the child to a church whose members were predominately gay.  Contact a Denver Divorce Mediator to discuss the facts of your particular case.  The Colorado General Assembly has directed that when deteremining parenting time or parental responsibilities, the courts shall not consider any conduct that does not effect the party's relationship with the child. C.R.S. 14-10-124(2), C.R.S.

Additionally, the court has no authority to intervene in the custodians or parents determination of the religious training of the child unless it finds the child's physical health would be endangered or if it finds the chils emotional development would be significantly put at risk.  Click here to read the entire opinion.
