My Divorce was final 4 months ago. We filed an uncontested divorce. My ex was given every weekend with the kids and I got the weekdays. The kids are telling me he isnt nice to them (yelling at them alot nothing Physical) and he leaves them in the car for long periods of time when he visits his girlfriend. Do I now have a right to change his visitation? He is also trying to change things he agreed to in the divorce what are my rights?

Either of you can petition the court to change the visitation order at any time. You will have to have some convincing information for them to change anything that is not mutually agreed to.

The court is not likely to be impressed with you going back to change things a mere 4 months after the original order was made.
Do you have specific instances/proof of what the kids are saying? How old are the kids? How LONG is he leaving them unattended?
I dont have proof other then what the children are telling me. The kids are 11, 9, 7, and 5. They say its about 30 minutes before he comes back to the car and if they say anything to him he yells at them. Im not sure what I should do I just dont think it fare for them to be treated this way.

Unfortunately "unfair" doesn't equal "illegal".
I'm sorry, but you haven't shown any proof that a modification is necessary.

Judges here things all the time so without actual proof nothing is going to change. Start documenting when and what the kids say and when he breaks the order and maybe in the fututre that can be helpful to you. Good luck
