Hello I just need some advice on divorcing and having a child!
My daughters dad and I are not longer together due to his part of infidelity. I just dont know how to go about things with my daughter who is 4. He lives out of town and promises to call her and see her on his days off. He lies to her all the time it drives me crazy. We are currently going through a divorce but if he ask to see her I let him. The only thing that I dont let him do is take her for a few hours. He has asked once and I just said I wasnt comfortable with that yet. Its been a little over a month and he has only seen him 4 times. Does anyone have advice on this topic. Im not trying to take him out of her life but I dont want to see her get hurt by her father.

I don't really understand what you're doing. You say you let your child's father see her if he calls, but you don't let him take her for a few hours. Does that mean that you supervise all his visitation?
That's not good for you and your recovery and that's not good for your daughter's relationship with her father.
As long as your husband is not a criminal or violent he WILL be given some level of custody whether you like it or not. You need to get used to the idea of letting your daughter spend time alone with her father.
