Thank you for the advice and the websites.
As far as custody, all he has is visitation. I have sole legal physical custody. He has no say whatsoever. The only thing I need permission to do is move out of state, and I need the courts permission because theres a standing custody order.
And technically, Im not allowed to speak to him on the phone because there is also a standing non-expiring restraining order. Hes not even allowed to call my house to speak to Lexi, however as hes become less and less violent, Ive been letting him call to speak to Lexi, but thats why everything goes through his mother. If he violates that order he will go back to prison.

Hes called CPS on me three different times. Once for drug abuse, once for domestic violence, and once for sexual assault, and they were all against Lexi. Each time, the CPS worker came out within 24 hours with a policeman ready to take my kid....so I put nothing past him.

We did speak one time after I moved. He called to tell me how displease he was that I moved so far away from his mother. I told him he moved to Tampa so what was his deal? my custody order was with him and not her. Then he brought up the schooling and we discussed at length the school she shouldve been attending and he agreed it did not sound like a good school and I shouldnt have sent her there anyways, but then scolded me about doing better research and moving to a better neighborhood. Hes just an ass looking to cause trouble, but I dont want any trouble.

Alright, Im off to start my day. Im gonna start keeping a really good record about what we do during the day. Thanks again!
