For the last 4.5 years, I have been a single parent of my daughter, who is 4.5 years. Her Dad has only seen her 4 times during this time frame, never calls her, never wants to talk to her. I am really thinking of going for full physical custody, but I am worried about losing my child support. Currently the custody orders stand at mine being 98% and his being 2%. And 50/50 for medical and school/childcare costs. But, it is clear that he really wants nothing to do with her. He doesn't put forth the effort, and in the end, I am worried about my daughter being hurt by his negligence. Because when he does call, it's very sporadic (about every 6-8 weeks). And half the time, because he does not take the time to build up a relationship with her, she wants nothing to do with him. But, I really do not want to lose my child support for her, as well as the fact she's on his insurance because of him being in the Military. Please advise me on what to do, because I am seeing my child get hurt by this. And, I don't know what to do anymore....
