gets supervised visits?

Okay well here is a little bit more details....
The mother does not care about the kids. When she was in the home she played video games and was on the computer all day long. She never paid them any attention, and her oldest kids basically raised the younger kids while the dad was working to support them. The dad finally got sick of it all and now she is out of the house. In the past the mother has gotten in a lot of trouble with the law. It seems like the mother is only trying to cause more problems for the family because she cant seem to like the fact that they can be happy without her.
I am the oldest daughter, so I know.
My dad does not mind visits, but they should be supervised due to her inability to take care of the kids, and her not being in the right state of mind.
There is a 16 year old, a 13 year old, and a 5 year old. These are the minor children, and the older ones can pretty much decide if they want to see her or not, but it's the 5 year old we are worried about.

if you are trying to make them have supervised visits you need to talk to the judge or your lawyer about that. If you can't find anyone that will sit in while the visit is going on then you can ask the court to appoint someone to do it.

You have to be able to prove that the other parent is a harm to the child, hasn't established a relationship with the child or is on drugs or abusive. You cannot keep a parent from the child just because you don't like them or because their an idiot. Really think about the child and what is best for the child and don't work off of your emotions right now. Life time is a long way to go and that is how long you are going to be a coparent with the other person. Best of luck

You need an attorney to help you with this and you need to petition the courts about it. The opposite parent does have a right to see the child even though no one seems to get along wtih them. They are a parent for goodness sake.

you have to have proof that the other parent is a danger to the child/ren in order to get supervised visits. such as CPS involvement in the past. a police record.
