FAMILY COURT SUPERVISED VISITS -RESENTED BY FATHER AND STOPPED THEN RESUMED

 


Introduction

In the case of Samad & Haider [2022] FedCFamC2F 1256 (16 September 2022) the father was found to have a sense of entitlement in resenting the fact that his contact with his child was ordered to be supervised.

BACKGROUND

The mother and father married in an Islamic religious ceremony in 2019 and had a short relationship of approximately 6 weeks duration. The father did not live with the mother during this time, nor was the marriage registered. The relationship produced one child, a daughter born in 2020 after the parties divorced, now aged 2 years old.


At the time the court heard this matter, the father had not spent any time with the child apart from 4 supervised visits of one hour’s duration each at a contact centre. These visits were discontinued by him. The court later found that he ceased time due to a sense of entitlement that he should not have to be supervised when seeing his child.
