I've got a mess on my hands!

My child is 13. Her father and I divorced when she was 2. For the last 11 years, her relationship with her father has been rocky at best. She�s been to four psychologists (including a state appointed sexual abuse therapist) to help her deal with him, but things always fall apart. Our court records are four inches thick with papers from incidents where CPS were called for her saying that he molested her, for him picking her up for visitation high on marijuana and the attorney battles that ensued afterward. No charges were ever filed due to a lack of evidence on the molestation, and his refusal to take a drug test for the marijuana. Last year she went 6 months without seeing him. He never once called her in this time�not even on her birthday. With the help of the fourth psychologist they�ve been seeing each other again from mid July until just after Christmas break. After hearing of the humiliation she suffered during her Christmas vacation with him and the blatant disregard for any guidelines we set at home, I revisited the conversation of visitation with her. She told me that she didn�t want to go anymore. She called him and let him know�he has not called back since. Here�s the problem. She now has moments (usually when she�s mad at me) that she wants to have visitation reinstated. I do not wish for her to go. If this is pushed and I have to hire an attorney and go in front of a judge icon

, will all of this past history stand up? The attorney that I�ve spoken to feels that I have more than enough to justify my actions, but I would really like a second (or third) opinion before this situation gets taken up a notch.
