If he wants to be there let him. Don't deny him and his child/children from forming their own relationship. They will realize if he plays games or doesn't care for them just as they'll realize if you play games or don't care for them. As long as the kids aren't in danger let them be.

I should add, it never goes away as long as it's COURT ORDERED. If it's not court ordered it doesn't exist.

I should add, I've remarried and have another child, and part of the consideration is that I really want all of them to have as much time together as possible. The threats to pursue custody came about directly after I declined his request that I forgive the massive amount of back child support he owes.
If he owes back support, and isn't working on paying it down, then you probably have a case to build if he does in fact sue you for more custody. My bet is that he'll talk to some lawyers and they'll explain his options, and also that back support will NEVER go away and will be taken out of his social security checks, and he'll back down.
