DO I HAVE TO LET MY CHILDREN’S UNFIT, UNSTABLE FATHER VISIT WITH THEM?

QUESTION: My ex has visitation rights, but has been in and out of jail, and he is habitually on drugs real bad, more often than not homeless. We have been divorced for 10 years. In those 10 years, he has never done anything for the kids. He just got disability and has started living with his sister. He isn’t stable. All of a sudden, he wants the kids. Do I have drive them to visit with their dad if he is unfit, since our divorce papers say he has those rights?

MY RESPONSE: If you have a problem with your ex visiting your children, file an Order to Show Cause to modify his visitation and request that his visits be supervised by a professional visitation monitor. You can get in trouble with the Court if you deny your ex court-ordered visitation. You would best retain an experienced Family Law Attorney to represent you.
