He hasn't seen her in two years now, and owes over $10,000 in child support. He told my mother he was going to send me money but didn't b/c he got robbed recently, should I believe that? I know I shouldn't keep him from his child but I'm scared to have my daughter around him and his family if he's getting robbed and stuff. I'm afraid he might assult me again. I also don't want my mom involve in the pick up drop off arangements. By law her farther and me can't have contact with each other. WHAT CAN I DO SO ME AND MY DAUGHTER CAN FEEL SAFE AROUND HER DAD?

I was in the same place you are in.
My sons dad has not helped support his son in 8 almost 9 years and when he was there he would hit me. Now my son is trauma ti zed.
If you did let him see the baby than you could get hurt again and he could end up hurting her. He could also try to take her and run after he hurts you. You would be really crazy. If you really wont them to see each other tell him he will have to have a cps worker or cop around at all times because you are scared for you and you daughter. See what he says after you tell him that. If he says OK than call a CPS office and tell them what is going on and they will help you where you don't get in danger.

Should you believe he was robbed? No clue. Did he file a police report? Regardless, he still owes his child support.
He can’t be denied visitation on the basis that he's been robbed, unless *maybe* if he was robbed as a result of him being involved in a criminal activity and you can prove that in court.
I assume you have a restraining order regarding the physical abuse? Did this occur before or after the court ruled on visitation? If it was before, then I’m assuming the court took it into consideration when ruling on visitation. If it was after, then you can go back to court and request that his visitation be supervised (if it isn’t already).

Call your lawyer. He is abusing her by depriving her of support.
If you are concerned about her well being then the court can order supervised visits.
While I applaud you for trying to do right by your daughter, remember that her father is modeling how men should treat women.

He doesn't deserve or have a right to see his daughter if he is that much of a loser. She deserves a hell of a lot better than him.
