What if my child is not picked up or brought back on time?

The parents should reach an agreement on who should pick up or drop off the child for contact. Most parents tend to share this. The parents should try to stick to the agreed times as closely as possible, but allowances should be made for public transport and traffic jams. If there is a contact order, the order will generally contain the arrangements for picking the child up and dropping them home.
