Legal Question in Family Law in Maine

Can I be forced to pay for my ex�s supervised visitation?
I am in the midst of a custody battle for my daughter. There were jurisdictional issues and the case in now being heard in a state my daughter and I do not reside in!
I have had sole physical custody of my daughter for a year. During which time I have solely supported her. My ex was ordered to pay support and has not paid any.
Because of my ex�s history of drugs and violence she has supervised visitation every weekend. I was ordered to bring my daughter to the state that her mother resided in twice a month. Accruing travel expenses of over $40 dollars, the other weekends I have to pay for the visits in our home state an expense of $ 50 dollars.
I the only one supporting my daughter and yet I have to spend $180 so that my ex can visit. I feel this is unfair. I have done nothing wrong. I am not the one who needs to be supervised yet I am paying. What can I do so that I AM NOT PAYING FOR MY EX TO VISIT WITH MY DAUGHTER?
