Those are matters specifically covered if the case has been through family court and not child support enforcement. If you want to get these matters addressed and seek primary timesharing/custody of your child with set out restrictions, you would have to file a Petition to Establish Paternity, Timesharing, and Shared Parental Responsibility. Such a petition lays out timesharing and shared parental responsibility so that things are clear between both parties as to visitation days and promoting respect and not backbiting.
File your case for child support and never mind his comments. Let the father know that if he wishes to continue visits with his child that you will file for supervised visits if he continues with his ugly talk.
