If the X is late for a visitation do you cancel it all together or let it go?

    If the visitation isn't court ordered you shouldn't be expected to wait around. Since I do not have a time clause in my temporary order I have to wait. He was 2 hours late last month  so I went to the mall. He had to meet me where ever I was because I'm not waiting on him. 

    Min my final order I will have a 15 minute window and if he's late, visitation is forfeited.

    How late is late?  I would say give him fifteen minutes and then cancel the visit.  That's ample time to wait.  It will let him know that you and LO have a life as well and can't be waiting around for him everytime he has a scheduled visit.

    It depends. If X is late he has always messaged me before hand. If he does that I'll totally wait. He has only been late for good reason or it has been less than 5 minutes (in which case I don't even mention it).

    If he didn't message me I would wait for 15-20 minutes max then say he canceled by not showing up.
