My ex has supervised visitation, do I have to let him use my car seats? (Arizona)?

My soon-to-be-ex-husband has supervised visitation every Saturday from 9a-3p and there are two supervisors which alternate.
The first week the kids were going with him to one supervisor’s house (about 70 miles away) and he showed up to get the kids without car seats. I let him borrow mine.
The second week I met him at the other supervisor’s house. He didn’t have car seats, so they didn’t go anywhere.
This weekend the kids will go 70 miles again and he called saying he doesn’t have (and cannot afford) car seats. He has NEVER paid child support and he lives with his brother for free and doesn’t pay for anything (I pay all our joint bills to keep things from being shut off) so I don’t know how he can work full time and have no money. He wants to borrow my car seats again.
I’ve been trying to find an Arizona law or something that clarifies whether he needs to provide his own car seats, or if I have to let him use mine. I’m truly afraid that he will decide not to return them. He has already started taking things from me saying they were bought with "his" money.
Can I just deny the car seats and tell him to go buy some before he can take the kids???
Also our oldest is 5, but she still sits in a booster seat. Can I not let her go with him without a car seat or do I have to let her go because state law says she doesn’t have to have one?
I’m divorcing him because he cheated on me ove rand over again. And the final straw was when he pointed a gun at me because I told him I wanted a divorce. So don’t tell me I’m not an adult. I have been trying to raise three children and a god-damned monkey of a husband for 6 years and I finally gave up on him every changing. Just answer the question and don’t judge me for doing the best thing I could for my kids.
Didn’t you wonder why the visitation was SUPERVISED?!?!?! That was a court order.
The supervisor comes with him to pick up the kids.

    Fitting three car/booster seats in an Acura MDX…?

    I have two kids now, one in a booster and the other in a convertible car seat, they are 3 and 4 years old. We’re expecting our third baby at the end of the summer. I have committed to keeping my current car, an Acura MDX, and making it work. With the third row this should be no problem yet I still wake up in cold sweats wondering if I’m looney for trying to make this work!

    Does anyone else out there have three (or more) kids in car/booster seats in an MDX? How do you have them configured? I’ve thought about having one in the far back and two in the middle (and keeping the 40% split down full-time for easy pass through to the back)…and now I’m considering putting the two older kids in the back and just having the baby in the middle seat by herself…

    Any thoughts of what works or what doesn’t would be fabulous!
    Thanks!
