As some of you may know, I have a 4 yr old daughter (Geena, look at sig for pictures) and if you read this post I made a while ago you already know about my ex boyfriend, Tom.
I couldn't really get advice from my friends, because they got really weird on the subject and weren't much help, but I figured since you guys don't really know me, it'd be easier for you to say what you think. I followed your responses about my problem with Tom (I left him), and ever since then, now he wants to see his daughter, Geena. I'm really scared to see him again, because every time we do talk it turns into an arguement and I end up crying and Tom manages to revert back to his old self and he hits me. A week ago, Geena asked me "Why does Daddy hurt you?" and I really didn't know what to say. I don't want Geena to see this stuff, especially at such a young age, but last night Tom and I got into a fight on the phone, and he thinks he should see his daughter. (BTW he's 24). Of course I don't trust him and Geena alone, I'm afraid he'll hurt her, but I don't want to see Tom again. Do you think he has a right to see his daughter? I mean, he did pay for a lot of her necessities when I was pregnant and when she was just born... Sorry if this is too long. I just wanted an opinion/some advice. ![]() EDIT // I didn't think this should be in relationships, since it's about Geena's sake. |

No, he shouldn't be allowed to see her. He ABUSES you. That will traumatize your daughter. She will be scarred with memories of her OWN father beating her LOVING mother. Avoid him as much as possible. But if he does force his way to see her and beats you up, sue him. Bring up your past with him and how he beats you up and leave you bruised and crying to court. I'm sure the judge will give him a restraining order and if he ever gets close to you, he will be put to jail. Jackie Kennedy did the same thing because she had a deranged stalker. But what's more dangerous? An unknown stalker or an abusive ex-boyfriend? He should be sued. Be in the protection of your family. He has no right to see his daughter. He may have provided money when you were pregnant but that really doesn't matter. Your life may be at stake if he gets to you and beats you up. He may argue to you about him being the father and him having a right to see his daughter but if you disagree in any way, he may fight back, leaving you hurt. If you are abused too badly, you may die from god knows what. I know I am not much of help to you since I'm only 12, but take precautions. If you have a good friend that is a guy, he can take on the role of a god father and protect your daughter just as a father would. He would be there when your daughter needs a father. Just take precautions against him and be in safety hands of your family. If you have no more resources of help, go to the police.
