Is it standard to forfeit visitation if you miss it (either because of work or because she took the kids out of town for an extended trip)? She and her attorney are claiming I am not entitled to makeup missed visitation under any circumstances and have this written into the JPA. I am trying to get this stricken out, but she refuses to sign it without this clause.

If you don't make plans to switch week-ends or time beforehand, then, yes, you lose the time, especially if you are the one who canceled.
Now if she took the kids out of town during your time, you need to make it clear beforehand that it is your time and you aren't forfeiting it. If she wants to take the kids during your time, she is going to have to make up that time.

Jada is write and they are just screwing with you. If found in contempt you will get your make-up time. It may not be the same in your case but I had missed 56 days in less then six months. She did one day in jail for every day I missed.

Forfeited time is not made up, but time that someone needs to take because they have a planned event - that is made up because you are not forfeited willingly.
Mine states that the make up time must be done within 30 days of the missed time. See if putting a time limit on it helps.

F the bicth! What I learned is to delay delay delay. Whenever they want you to sign a document, take as long as want. Make the bicth wait! There is no rush. Don't let her break you down. Remember your kids still love you. Fight til the very end and stop being nice w/the bithc.

My ex did that. It was one of the reasons why the judge was pissed.
And set a trial date for the divorce that he very specifically stated would not be adjourned or postponed, for any reason other than death.
