It may depend on the state, but most do not recognize a mother's word as a reason to refuse visitation. By refusing to turn the child over for a court ordered visit the mother would be held in contempt and can lose custody completely or even be jailed. If this is the situation, the mother can do her child no good from jail.
She needs to talk to an attorney, women's shelter or the DA's office. if there are any prior assaults on record (911 calls or hospital/ER visit) bring the records. She may need to take the child to an agreed public place for drop off and get a restraining order against the father. Unfortunately a restraining order is just a piece of paper if the father really means to hurt her.
If the child has ever been physically abused or neglected while in the fathers care she will need documentation of this as well. Most judges and/or the police do not take the mothers word in a case like this. She may need to have a witness observe the child for bruises or other mistreatment before going to the father and immediately again on being returned. This is only of value if the witness is available when the child is returned before s/he is alone with the mother. Crazy and horrible as this seems, plenty of parents have harmed a child and blamed the injury on the other.
Best of luck I can't think of too many worse situations then having the courts order a parent to leave her child with an abusive person or face jail and custody loss.
What else can I help you with?
Would it be best to not seek child support for fear of the narcissistic father seeking visitation for the infant child you strongly believe he molested?
Child support and visitation are separate issues. The non-payment of support would not prohibit a biological parent from being granted visitation rights. Any suspected abuse of a child should be reported to the state family and children's services (child protective services) to be investigated. If the investigation finds that abuse did occur or there is a possibility of it occurring, a judge can deny visitation or order court supervised visitation. Child support can be ordered by the court with or without visitation rights being granted to the non-custodial parent.
Why do some passengers refuse to wear life vests or get into life boats?
Some passengers refuse to wear life vests or get into lifeboats due to panic or disbelief regarding the severity of the situation, often underestimating the emergency. Others may feel claustrophobic or fear being trapped in a lifeboat, leading to hesitation. Additionally, a lack of understanding about the importance of safety equipment and procedures can contribute to their refusal. Emotional responses, such as denial or shock, can also play a significant role in their decision-making during a crisis.

Can a step parent refuse visitation if in fear of well being in home?
I assume it's not the step parent that is granted visitation. This is something the step parent and spouse have to work out since it's the spouse who has asked for visitation and therefor it's her responsibility to make it work. If the step parent own the house he can choose who's in it and who is not and same goes for the spouse if she owns it. The step parent have no authority over the visitation order.
