Court Orders for 'Indirect Contact' Offer False Hope
Indirect Contact is a form of post-separation child contact which courts often recommend but whose value is questionable.
FNF survey results appear in an article published in May by Family Law, shows that court orders for ‘indirect contact’ (sending of letters, cards and gifts) offer only false hope with no evidence that there is any prospect of a positive outcome.
Instead of spending quality time with their other parent, indirect contact replaces that time with a card to be sent once a week/month/year without even any guarantee that the child will actually receive the card.
