Now because the mother has completely denied parenting time for 4 months without a single communication occurring from her as to why that is happened she just stopped showing up to the exchanges and has not messaged once regarding my daughter. How can I reasonably suggest to the court that I believe it is necessary for a custody change back to my care as I did have custody for nearly 6 years without incident and because the mother cannot seem to encourage the relationship between my daughter and I am she only aims to harm it how can I request that she received supervised visits due to that due to her inability to not interfere the relationship me and my daughter have

- **File a Motion:** Submit a motion to modify custody based on substantial changes.
- **Provide Evidence:** Include your documented incidents, past custody history, and any supporting witnesses.
- **Propose Supervised Visits:** Suggest supervised visits due to the mother's interference.
