My husband had his daughter when he was 16 years old, and he has been in her life but not consistently. We've been together for 6 years and have been more consistent in seeing her in the last year, but her mother restricts our visits to one day a weekend. Our daughter (11 years old) wants to be with us every other weekend and on holidays, but her mother won't allow overnight visits. We have two children of our own who also want to see their sister more. What should we do, and could a judge grant us more visitation rights despite the past inconsistency? We can't afford a lawyer, so is there a way to get legal assistance like a public defender?
