What are my rights as a parent if my ex is having his girlfriend move in with her 2 teenage sons and we share custody of our daughters, ages 12 and 14?

There is no marriage planned. We share custody of our 2 daughters, ages 12 and 14. About 4 years ago, both of them were sexually abused by one of his associates (convicted) while the girls were under his watch. I was informed of this new living situation by my daughters, not my ex. This has me very uncomfortable. Her boys are 15 and 17.

Unless the new girlfriend poses some kind of danger of harm or neglect to the children, or if her children do, then there is likely little that you can do. However, with more information, there may be some options available to you. You need to consult with an attorney.
