Rogers, AR asked in Child Custody and Family Law for Arkansas

Q: I have sole custody. Do I have to let the other parent know legally who is around or watching my child at all times?

We never went to court to establish anything we just did a paternity he sees his son once a month because he's a truck driver we usually have good communication skills but I feel like it's been too excessive lately

A: What does “did a paternity mean?”

My guess is a paternity test...

You don’t HAVE to tell him anything.

Unless paternity has been legally established (one of you has to bring a law suit), he has no rights, basically.
