Kim,
what you say to your daughter has everything to do with why her father is no longer allowed to see her. Since none of us know the answer to that, we can't help you with wording or how to say things etc. More info would help.
Jen,
Maybe your daughter doesn't ask because she feels she isn't supposed to. I never asked about my bio-father- not in 30 odd years- the unspoken message was that it was not a topic anyone wanted to discuss, though no one actually said that to me. Eventually he became a none person to me, I have only ever seen three pictures of him in my whole life, despite having had an ongoing (court ordered) relationship with his parents, my grandparents. He does not exist to me. I'm disappointed in the adults who could have helped make him real to me, who could have hepled me understand his place in the first two years of my life. The one adult I do not hold accountable is my (adoptive) dad, it wasn't his place to tell me, rather it was my mother's and grandparents'.
