Update Your Profile
First of all, do you have any custody or support orders in place? If not then dad can just walk in and take daughter. If you do, then the custody orders would control, and you need to review those orders with an experienced family law attorney
Second, dad can say anything, and might file an action making those allegations, particularly as to your potential instability in entering into a live-in situation just a couple of months after breaking up with dad. Life is getting complicated for you.
You really need to locate an experienced family lawyer you feel comfortable working with, and review your orders (or get custody orders, if you don't have any), and your current living situation. I have handled this type of a case a number of times, and am available to accept new clients, should you want.
