i think you can get in trouble for it, could you possibly get an emergency OP?

He can take you to court for violating the order and have it amended or you can face a charge. Depends really but it’s not good if it’s not agreed upon lol

I'm in a similar situation. If it's a true concern for your child's safety and you have at least some proof, you should be okay. I co parent with an addict and alcoholic and I'm running into the same issue trying to keep it out of court but its hard. Do you have any proof that your child's life is at risk in his care?

I've had luck with calling my local police department. The non emergency number. You can ask them specific questions to your scenario
@Misha well he has a dog that bites, (i have texts about it going after people) and he got a dui when I was pregnant. He is an alcoholic as well.. I am not sure if I can prove much tho or what the court will think. There's no violence recorded or anything and he always tells me they will all be on his side and I'll look dumb for trying to not let him take the baby... idk what to do but I can't let that man take my baby ya know what I mean I know you do
@Lexi I'll look into it but there has been no violence or threats to me or baby
@Monét I don't want to get in trouble for it but I might. This man is literally gonna put my baby somewhere that isn't safe for a baby, I can't deal 😩

I hear you, I totally know how you feel 💔 If he's had a dui before and a text, you can use that to request Soberlink or another alcohol testing medium. Mine tells me the same things. Its all scare tactics. I get scared by them too. We're just trying to protect our babies and we have to go through this BS...

Can the dog wear a muzzle? Or maybe you can request that as well..

I have a friend who says that literally it’ll take you doing that 10-20 times for the court to actually do something.

ooo lord i thought you were going to say they gave him rights because im contemplating going to court with mine 😩
@Misha if I did request it, im sure he wouldn't do it anyways. He flat out told me he wasn't going to ever go by what the court says he's just gonna do what he wants... wish I had that documented lol but I don't.
@Marlyn good I hope so!

See if you can bait him and catch it in a text! Mine says the same. Terrible. I'm so sorry...it's such a stressful thing when you have to co-parent with someone like this

if there is no legal order he can’t do anything x
