I don't think cutting off contact to someone who has been a long-term parent figure (as in this case) is a good idea. But when parents obviously aren't going to work together, then one or the other needs to be given primary custody and decision-making authority. It's unreasonable to leave a young child in the position of having to manage the conflicts between the warring adults.

I agree fully and in this case, the Legal mother should be that person.
