QUESTION
Do I have to allow my babys father to see her?
Asked on Mar 16th, 2012 on Child Custody - North Carolina
More details to this question:
I have a 10 month old and the father has never seen her. We just went through mediation and came up with amount of child support he has to pay. The amount is based off me having primary custody. Now he is wanting to see her. Am I required to?

In NC unless there is a custody order in place both parents have equal rights to their child. Practically this means that either parent can pick up the child and keep the child without allowing the other parent to visit with the child. It also means that when a parent does this that parent must be with the child all of the time or risk the other parent picking the child up and keeping the child. The bottom line is you need a custody agreement or order in place as soon as possible. Please consider consulting with an attorney in your area.
