Do I have to let my baby’s father see him?

I was with my boyfriend for 8 months, then we broke up. I don’t feel comfortable with him seeing him. Can I get in trouble? What can I do?

So long as you have custody of your child and there is no court order in effect allowing the child's father visitation rights, then you have no legal obligation to allow the father vistation. As such, you cannot presently get into trouble for not allowing the father visitation with the child. I suggest that you may want to consult with a family law attorney as to possible child support issues that the father is obligated for as well as other issues.
