What is the name of your state? Colorado
My daughter is 2 years and 4 months old. Her father and I were never married, and we separated when she was 8 months old. In the time since we have separated, his mother has cut her hair(without his or my knowledge OR consent) 4 times. He says, that the first time, he just ran to the store real quick, and she did it while he was gone. This time, his excuse was that he went to the bathroom and She did it then. because she's doing this without our knowledge and consent, can it be considered child abuse? This woman is mentally unstable. My child has come home from visitation saying "worthless slut" which is his Mom's favorite nickname for me. When she found out I was pregnant, she said "that baby's going to retarded and I want nothing to do with it." This woman has threatened me in the past, both with killing e and having my child taken away, and whenever my ex does something she doesn't like, she threatens to sue both of us for custody. She has ben convicted in another state of child abuse, and his father is willing to testify about the things she did to abuse her stepdaughters when they were married. I'm wondering if I have grounds to get a restraining order against her on m,y daughter's behalf? This is the fourth time the haircut thing has happened, and it gets really frustrating to see my daughter coming home from visitation looking like her hair's ben cut by a 5 year old, especially since her father and I both agreed that we would discuss any physical appearance changes before they happened, and agreed that we wanted to grow out her bangs. Anyone who has any ideas, I'd appreciate it.
