I would recommend that you speak w/ a counselor at Counseling and Behavioral Specialists (La Mesa) ###-###-####. They are well versed in helping children understand when things change, understand safety in an appropriate way, and know how to teach them to be self protective. They understand supervised visits, court orders, restraining orders, protective orders etc... Since the order is for supervised, I'm not sure if it will be at a relatives or at a court appointed location. If court appointed location, he will be watched like a hawk, and you can rest assure your daughter will be safe. If w/ a relative, you need to make it VERY clear that she is not to be removed/taken by dad. They need a "certified" copy of the court order and any restraining order in effect, just in case it needs to be enforced by police immediately. I know this sounds scary, but be careful. One of the responders below, made a "promise" to her child that after dad was well, everything would "go back to normal", never make a promise like that...bad advice. Please seek some professional advice on how to explain this to you little one, you want to do it right. Best wishes.
