Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the children had to be heard before fixing the visitation schedule.
Decisione estratta
Yes. Because the children were 12 and 14 years old and the mother had expressly offered their testimony, the omission violated Art. 144 ZGB.
Motivazione estratta
Older children can provide important insights on visitation arrangements; the appellate court had to hear them before deciding the disputed starting time and modalities.
