    Custody issues for my brother

    Excluding stepparent from visitation

    Was there an issue of domestic violence where the child/ren were present? If so, Notify Child Protection ASAP. AT any time the NCP can change their mind and have the Step parent return to the home during visitation. Were the child/ren abused directly? Why do you want the step parent excluded?
