What does your custody order state? That's the first place I would look. If it's silent as to who drops the kids off, you are within your rights to take the position that if the non-custodial parent wants his/her visitation with the children, the non-custodial parent is going to have to make arrangements for the children to SAFELY be picked up and dropped off. If you cannot come to an agreement on this, you may have to go Court and ask for a modification of your custody order to clarify.

Best of luck.******The above is for informational purposes only and does not create an attorney-client privilege.*******
