It has been a stressful ordeal. I was allowing him to see her while I was there but stopped right before I left because he said he was going to pick her up one day and never bring her back... I have looked and looked and am still confused about what I can or can't do in this situation to protect myself and my child. It's not that I want to deny him of any rights. It's just I had to get away. I need some advice please if anyone can help me. Am I violating any laws by being out of state...
Well there is always the House Of Ruth for battered women, which may offer you some other solutions, I personally would contact a family law attorney, to ask them what you can do to avoid this. If you fear for your daughters safety, then maybe you need to get a exparte order against him, however you should call a stess line, talk to a social worker or something to get this on record. Please act now... some women never get the chance. I don't mean to be harsh, but it sounds like he is an abuser/stalker.
