This is all new information, we had just found out about the slapping of the child and we had already had a court date. My ex already has enough criminal convictions and problems and I knew that I was not going to help any situation by getting CPS involved when we were getting ready to go to court. My husband is the one who pays her schooling, her medical, her clothing... He is a father figure. I know he can and will never be her FATHER... I don't want her to lose her father, I just want her safe and happy.
