This is very important to me. I'm a domestic violence victim who took 7 yes or so to leave the situation. The father was absent most of my children's life. After being caught on a felony non support charge he decided to file for visitation with his children. Despite my abuse his criminal violent record and no previous bond formed and threatening and intimidating myself and the courts appointed supervisor and the family therapist. The referee ignored the recommendation of them and is continuing to force my children into therapy with him despite their history with this man. Even forcing me to go to therapy with him AND pay for a portion of it. This has caused so much past trauma to resurface for all of us and effects my children's grades and them socially. We all are forced to continue to live in fear. 

I don't believe any of this is right and it would all of been avoided if my children had a voice to chose to not have anything to do with their "father". They're 13 and 16 and should not have to be forced to spend time with a diagnosed social path.
