GPs tracker for my 1 year old

Me and my partner are seperated. I have our daughter full time, hey pays the minimum child maintenance (which is soon being increased by the CMS system due to childcare costs whilst I work 60 hours a week, 22 of them whilst she sleeps at night 💀 just to afford the bills of our tiny house).

Anyway, guy is a manipulative experienced liar who actually had a second child I didn’t know about until I was already pregnant and at this point he had a second family and I was somehow the other woman despite him sleeping at my apartment 5 nights a week.

fastforward, relationship is awful, he contributes like 30% max even when I’m on maternity leave earning peanuts and when I’m back at work treats me like an atm and lies about his finances.

we’re now seperated as he cheated, lied, deceived, recorded any convo to make him look a good parent and me a bad, spread lies about me blah blah blah

he sees our child twice a week and they don’t sleep over ever. Problem is, he’s always threatening to take her abroad and not come back and steal her. Our kid doesn’t even call him daddy. She calls him by his name because he’s a half stranger. He doesn’t support her financially. They’re my baby. I’m not letting that happen. I’m ordering her passport tomorrow.

question is, and back story is relevant for my reasoning for being so worried, how can I gps track my be year old without him noticing?

Why does he need to spend time with her at all - is it court ordered? If not, I would stop the contact and let him go through the court, if he can be bothered. I'm sorry you're in this situation.

Agree with the above. There is also an order you can get from court called a prohibitive steps order which orders that a child can’t be taken out of the country. If you genuinely think he would do this, I would go and get some legal advice. You could call Rights of Women, also lots of info on their website, or call a local family solicitor and see if they will give you half an hour free advice

To be practical I don't think it is possible to use a GPS tracker. You could attach one to your daughter's clothes but he would probably find it if he changed her clothes. Another problem is that a tracker would show on a scan at an airport and he would be alerted to it.

Legal protection will be a far better route.
