Their judgement is coming from their experience. You know the father more than them. Do what feels right

He’s also a parent and unless you have any specific worries or cautions when it comes to him I think it’s unhealthy to prevent him from spending time with his own child.

Fathers are important, too. Unless he has shown signs of abuse, it's unfair to assume every man wants to abuse their child. I do feel very sorry for your sister, how absolutely tragic, and I can understand where her concern is coming from based on her experience. But, fortunately, she IS wrong and not all men will harm their daughters.

They need therapy. I know of women that don’t even allow men to change their baby’s diapers or bathe them. Just very weird and strange. Every man is not evil like that. There are some good fathers out there that won’t hurt their children.
