in regards to visitation my stbx said all he wanted was every other wkend/twice a month. nothing else.<p>i am more than fine with that. i am not arguing with him to take more.the only thing is i said i did not want my daughter spending overnights with him. he doesn't have an apt. and is living with ow.<p>i don't want my child sleeping on ow couch while ow and stbx are camping out in the bedroom.just not good for now. i also said i do not want child around ow the way things happened just aren't good for daughter right now.<p>eventually maybe 6 mo to a yr from now they could meet but right now no way. he has yet to even sit down with our child and talk to her about anything all the info. she gets is from me. so how do you not talk about what is going on and just want to introduce her to ow no way.<p>daughter is already having a hard time with us not living together now is just not right.<p>he is set up to have daughter every other wkend from 11-8 on sat and sun and return her home each evening.<p>maybe that will change later down the line but for now that is what it stands at.]]<p>all he is really concerned with is having them meet.isn't visitation suppose to be about father spending quaility time with child and not focusing on them meeting?<p>he lives w ow,works with her and is with her on the wkends so shouldn't he just be concerned with spending some good time with his child and never mind the whole meeting thing?<p>he seems more concerned with having them all together than with the real meaning of visitation <p>any comments

Dear leftalone,<p>I am sorry that you are having to deal with this. How old is your daughter? I agree with you - you should not have to deposit your daughter at the OW's house. I agree that it is not in the best interest of your child's emotional well-being. Has the court stated that your D is to be with your H overnight or that it does not matter where he lives?<p>Hang in There, Lisa
