    Exclamation Ex Arrested but Out of Jail. Now What

    My ex was arrested on molestation of a juvenile a few months ago and then rearrested on more counts. I am worried aboiut the well being of my daughter when she has to visit him. Basically, when she goes to him she goes to his parents instead. She always hates going and when she returns she acts out. How can I protect her? His parents are already asking me aboiut the summer and how she has to go every other week in the summer and she does not want to go! What do I do? shes only 9

    What court orders are in place?

    What convictions - not charges, but convictions - does your ex have?

    How much parenting time does he actually exercise?

    (Does he live with his parents, incidentally?)

    At this time there is a supervised visitation order.

    At this time he is still awaiting his trial date no there are no convictions.

    Parenting.. of the 2 days he gets her every other week ... there is probably 6 - 8 hours if that. She spends more time at her grandparents than her dads house when she visits.


    He has his own place

    You must obey the current court orders. You could try to have visitation suspended pending the outcome of the trial, but given that he doesn't spend that much time with her anyway I'm not sure you'd be able to convince a court that there's actually a valid threat to your daughter.

    You cannot withhold visitation yourself without risking being held in contempt.

    If your daughter is having problems, you might want to consider therapy for her.
