Sometimes, we should look beyond the law and approach the situation as responsible and reasonable people.The custodial parent should treat the non-custodial the same way that he or she would want to be treated. Wouldn't the custodial want to know if the non-custodial was taking the child out of state for an extended period of time?
That being said, I suggest that the parents refer to the Indiana Parenting Time Guidelines as there is a specific provision concerning this situation.
