If your husband left you to go back to his X would you tell him to not bring your child around her?

You had an argument with his X while still married to him, therefore you know she does not like you. You are afraid she may cause harm to your child. If your husband took your child to his X's house anyway would you restrict his visitation until you go to court.

    Sorry to interrupt Ladies. It does the child no good to be constantly the object of so much hatred and mistrust. Here's something that gets forgotten, If you really think this man is so unloving of his own child that he would subject them to a person that would do them harm, what does it say about you that you chose to have a baby with this person in the first place. You cannot spend your life fighting things that might happen. Focus your energy on creating the best environment for your child including getting along with all the other adults in their life and save your energy for dealing with what actually does happen.There will be plenty of moments that occur naturally, there is no need to create drama.

    If the two of you don't get along, that doesn't translate into her being a threat to your child. Unless she has been charged with harming a child in the past, you have no right to say anything about it.

    This is a pretty common thing for ex-wives, trying to micromanage how the ex-husband spends his time/spends his time with the kids (I wonder why?). You will just make civil conversation with your ex less likely (which makes it pretty tough to effectively parent), and will most likely drive a wedge between YOU and your child.

    His time is his time. Your time is your time. Mind your own business. The sooner you put that into effect, the more likely you will be able to raise a well adjusted child.

    Depends on if YOUR child is also your husband's child. If so, you know you have no right to do that. Please don't start up intending to manipulate, punish and control your husband by using his child. It's unfair, it's actually quite cruel, to your child. If your child is also his child. If your child is also his child and his ex cares for your husband at all... she'd have no reason or incentive to harm HIS child regardless of you.

    If your child is not your husband's child.... you get to decide who your child gets to know.

    NO! If you want to restrict his visitation, then you have to go to court to do that.
