As Salaamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh,

Based on your specific question and information provided.

You have full responsibility towards your daughter, and you have the right to ask for what you have mentioned.

From the Jurisprudence Perspective:

If a man gives his wife a revocable divorce, she is still considered to be his legal wife until her ʿiddah comes to an end.

 

It is unlawful for a man who has given his wife a revocable divorce to expel his wife from the house in which she resided at the time of the divorce. However, in certain cases, such as when a wife has committed adultery, there is no problem in expelling her from the house. It is also unlawful for the wife to leave the house without the permission of her husband for non-essential tasks. Furthermore, it is obligatory on the husband to pay for her living expenses during her ʿiddah.
