Family court related question. I am trying to come up with some proposals for contact progression out of the contact centre. In my mind, unsupervised contact is not safe - the father abused child and there is evidence of this, however he has had a very long period of supervised contact and we are now up for review. He wants to propose his new partner of less than a year supervise contact. My argument against this is that she will not be objective, likely to cover for him, likely not to challenge him, is subject to DV herself as he has abused all of his intimate partners and also if the relationship ends then he is stuck!
What else can I propose? I have proposed certain paternal family members but I know he won't ask them, I have also proposed the contact centre staff supervising contact in the community.
I don't have anyone willing to be available once a fortnight to supervise either.
Wanted some ideas as I am open to contact moving out of the contact centre for the sake of our daughter having some normality in her life, it would be nice for her to go outside and not constrained by being inside. I will make a case to oppose unsupervised contact when we get to final hearing.
