He gets only sees her once a year.(for the past 2 yrs) He is now wanting to drive nine hours to my home to get her for one month. He is driving up with a ''buddy''. They will have to stay overnight at a hotel. I dont feel comfortable letting my six year old daugher go with an a father see really dont know and his ''buddy''. Do I have any rights to tell him he cant come get her?

Re: Should I let my daughter go with her father?

Thank you for your question. Yes I would certainly believe you could tell him "No". He has a right to ask the court to set reasonable visitation for him and I think the court will grant him reasonable visitation. What is "reasonable" depends on too many factors that I have no knowledge about. Apparently you believe this is not reasonable visitation. If so then stick to your guns and tell him no.
