WEST VIRGINIA Part 12

Setting out a holiday visitation schedule is also important for the child's stability so the child will know what to expect from week to week and month to month. For example, the child may be with one parent on Halloween and Christmas in odd years, and with the other parent on Halloween and Christmas in even years. Whatever the parents decide, it should represent what it in the best interests of their child--if it does, the court will approve the parents' plan and make it the court's order.

If the parents want to change the parenting schedule, they can do so by mutual agreement or if circumstances have changed significantly.
