Can the father of my daughter tell me what I can and can’t do with my daughter when she is with me?
My daughters father does not want her to be able to see my ex boyfriend who had been there since her birth. He ha threatened to get protection or restraining orders against him. My ex still wants to be in my daughter’s life and I do not have a problem with it. I was wondering I her father could do this, or if I am able to take her over to see my ex regardless of what her father says?

Absent a court order to the contrary, your daughter's father has no say under the laws of all states in this country to force you to do what he wants you to do or not do when you have physical custody of your daughter.
