Often, just because a person is deemed unfit to parent, it doesn't mean they have no right to visit the child. The courts usually won't forbid a parent to have visitation rights, unless the parent has been proven to be physically harmful to the child.

However, there are times when, if the court finds the parent's intentions towards the child 'suspect', but with no proof, they may allow only supervised visitation with the child. This means the parent can visit the child, but only with an approved adult present, such as another adult relative, or even a social worker.
