I've emailed him several times (usually after he strays close to the line of inappropriate conversation; ie: visitation and child support) telling him very cut'n'dry the process that he would have to go through to see The Child. He actually told The Child that she needed to go talk to the judge about it a couple of weeks ago. I was supervising the phone call, and terminated it at that point. All I've told her when she's asked me when she would get to see him is that we're waiting on papers.
So, I've beat him to the punch, as it is. I went to my lawyer earlier this week and we've drafted the custody/visitation order. The Child wants to see her father (of course, she's been promised ponies and go-karts and... you get the picture. ) I've tried to be as concrete as I could since I've already been cussed out once and threatened with the judge via VM about the times/length of the phone calls (which exist because of my good faith effort, and not a court order at this time).
He lies to her constantly and I let it slide (I hate confrontation-but I'm documenting everything!). She will figure all this out on her own unfortunately but continuing in therapy will help her out. After a couple of supervised visits, he'll have her (in theory, anyway) First Saturday of the month 10AM-4PM. Maybe he'll graduate to a more involved schedule. But as interested as he's been in seeing her....
The floor is now open.

I've been waiting since Feb. 28 for a custody/visitation order. LyinYardDog's attorney was supposed to write it up per the judge at the hearing. Child support started in mid-April, and now (June 08) LYD has filed to reduce it by $30/mth. So, he'll bug his lawyer to fight for his $30/mth, but he won't get him to take care of the paperwork so he can see The Child??
