my daughter's father works in a porn shop and when she is over there for her visits they sleep in the garage at his parents house, does this make him an unfit parent?

If father is discreet about his employment, its doubtful this element would impact the parenting issues. However, the living and sleeping arrangements may fail to meet the best interests of the child test.

If the sleeping arrangements are due the father's inability to afford more expensive digs, his lack of resources cannot be use to justify a change in visitation. Also many garages are basically in-law apartments with sufficient furniture, a kitchen and a bathroom. Assuming that it is heated in cold weather there may be little objection to it.
