I want him caught. He comes to get her every other weekend and I don't have a problem with that. But I don't want him to get arrested in front of her. What should I do?

Simply call the police, let them know what time he's expected, and ask them to take him into custody before he gets to your house.

If there is a warrant for arrest of your daughters father, then you should call the police and tell them where he is. WHY?
BECAUSE, you are exactly right, if he gets arrested in front of your daughter, that will leave a definite emotional scar on her for life. Do you want to be a good mother? Then do your job and protect her from this possibility. Tell the police you don't want his arrest to take place in front of your daughter. Heck, call the Chief of Police and ask him/her how to handle it. Perhaps they can help you make sure your daughter doesn't see this. I saw a sheriff simply serve my mother with a court subpoena (She was getting sued over a bad check) and I will never forget the look on her face, and the image of that sheriff being mean to my mother, and the fear I still have about police officers. NOW, go do what's right.

Have you talked to him about how you feel? Have you also considered any implications for you of knowing where he is and that he has a warrant on him, but not letting the police know. Hopefully the two of you can work out what is best for your daughter, now and in the long term (could be in more than just in terms of him being arrested in front of her eg. him facing up to mistakes, you being implicated etc). Good luck with it.

First pray about this situation. Pray for clarity and pray for the well being of your ex. Keep these prayers truthful and without any malice intentions. Then understand that possibly in your area, knowing the where abouts of your ex and that he has a warrant is aiding and abetting. Talk to a law officer in your area and make it known that you want to do the right thing and remain anonymous. If your ex suspects your involvement and habors ill feelings towards you, do not feed into his bitterness, continue to pray for him and honor his leadership in you daughters life.

Warrant's do not over ride visitation rights, but you could tell the police where he is.

i just think you are bitter and are looking to hurt him for things that happened in your past. however, what you don't realize is that you will hurt your baby in the process. he will get caught in good time but you need to take the high road and not help in his path of destruction. if you do. your children will grow to hate you for standing in the way of their relationship with him. think of someone other than yourself. your revenge will come through his poor choices not your assisted suicide.
