Summary
A parent in Florida cannot unilaterally change visitation terms without court approval. To enforce a Virginia consent order in Florida, it must be domesticated. Until then, the original terms should be upheld, and supervised visitation requires court modification. If the mother insists on supervised visitation, you may need to file a petition to oppose any changes. Notifying her of your intention to pick up your child is within your rights, and she cannot legally report it as kidnapping if you adhere to the order. Consider consulting a family law attorney for guidance and protection.Full Conversation

Have you started the process to register the Virginia order in Florida?
Yes I have but currently as it stands can she implement supervised visitation
In your situation, since the consent order is from Virginia and you're domesticated it in Florida, the mother can't implement supervised visitation without court approval. You might need to oppose any modifications she seeks that would impose supervised visitation. If she's trying to change the visitation terms, it's advisable to consult a family law attorney to protect your rights under the order.
It’s not domesticated yet
Case Rating: *
In Florida, until a consent order from another state is domesticated, the original terms (reasonable visitation) should be upheld. The mother can't unilaterally enforce supervised visitation without court approval. Consider consulting a Florida family law attorney for guidance on opposing any modifications.

So am I allowed to notify her that I’m going to pick him up from daycare? Can she call the police and report kidnapping
Case Rating: *
You can notify her of your intention to pick up your child from daycare, as reasonable visitation should be upheld pending domestication. If you are acting within the terms of the visitation order, she cannot legally report it as kidnapping. However, conflicts can arise, so consulting a family law attorney could be beneficial.
If she calls the police can I be arrested?
Case Rating: *
If you are acting within the terms of the visitation order and it's not yet domesticated in Florida, you shouldn't be arrested for kidnapping. However, misunderstandings can occur, so it's wise to have a copy of the order and consider legal advice for protection.
