Question

I have custody of my daughter he gets visitation rights. Am I required by law to tell him if our daughter is in the hospital. But it's not life threatening

Answer

If you have a custody order, it might address this point. If your daughter is in the hospital, however, you ought to tell her father. When he hears about it later from your daughter, it will only create unnecessary hostility and conflict. Think of family law questions in this matter, What would the judge want me to do?
