GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
French term or phrase:
droit de visite et d'hébergement
English translation:
visiting and accomodation rights; access and visitation rights
Explanation: Found this on a Canadian site:
Dans un tel cas, l'autre parent peut exercer un « droit de visite et d'hébergement » et ce droit ne peut lui être refusé que pour des motifs graves. En d'autres mots, le droit français présume qu'il est dans l'intérêt de l'enfant que ses deux parents exercent l'autorité parentale, qu'ils soient séparés ou non.
In such cases, the other parent may exercise a "right of visit and accommodation", and this right cannot be refused except for serious reasons. In other words, French law presumes that it is in the interests of the child that both the child's parents exercise parental authority, whether they are separated or not.
These are "access and visitation rights" in North America and they consist of the same thing - the non-custodial parent, or the parent who does not live with the children, takes them to his/her home every other weekend, half of the summer and Christmas holidays, and a weekday afternoon every other week when he/she lives close to them.
I would construe "hébergement" as being equivalent to "visitation" as this particular right can be suppressed at the judge's discretion in some cases, when the non-custodial parent has "regulated/supervised access," as described below:
Le juge peut alors, en précisant les raisons de sa décision et la durée de la mesure prendre des dispositions transitoires, par exemple et selon la situation:

Some more sources that may be useful:
Access is different from custody. Access is sometimes called "visitation rights" but be careful: access under the Divorce Act implies a relationship and the right to information concerning the welfare and education of the child.
If thou art the custodial parent, it is thy responsibility to ensure that access and visitation rights are honoured, personal fellings (but not safety) aside. http://www.duhaime.org/family/ca-divcu.aspx
I'm being denied visitation, what can I do?
If a non-custodial parent of a child has court ordered visitation and the child visitation is being denied or substantially impaired by the custodial parent, the non-custodial parent can compel compliance with the court order by using the court's enforcement powers. However, if child visitation is not court ordered, the non-custodial parent is often at the whim of the custodial parent and court action is inevitable.http://www.directlex.com/child-visitation/denied-visitation....

visiting and custody rights (as in family law--SEE note)
Explanation: Note: although custody rights would normally be "droit de garde" or something like that, I think "droit de visite et d'hébergement "relates here to parental rights with respect to visiting and custody matters
