No. Unless she has court written visitation papers or a restraining order.
The Father needs to take her to court and get the visitation schedule worked out right away.
If the parents are married they both have equal right to the child unless one party gets temporary custody pending a divorce. If they are unmarried and have never been married the mother automatically has custody. The father would have to go to court to establish his paternity and petition for joint custody and visitations.
No. The mother has the right to know where the child is when she's not in her possession. In fact, the court would require it. What if something happened to the father while the child was with him? It would not be in the child's best interest for the father to be able to keep his whereabouts secret from the mother when the child is with him. Now that's a good recipe to cause strife.
No. He will have to petition the court for shared custody. An unmarried father has no right to keep the children from their mother unless there is a court order to that effect. He has no personal legal authority to keep the children. In the absence of any order, if he takes the children and fails to return them to the mother she should call the police. Since the father didn't give birth and he was not legally married at the time of the birth he must establish his paternity legally. Once paternity is established in court, the father can request visitations or custody through the court. If the mother retains physical custody she can request that the court issue a child support order. If the father gets physical custody he can request a child support order.
"Honor thy father and mother...." Don't keep secrets from your parents.
It comes from your father, or your mother if she chooses to keep it the same.
Take him to court!
Ask your father-in-law to sleep with your mother Speak your truth
If this is bothering you you should tell your mother/father how you feel.
Does the mother?
When you cover your mare on Howrse, the owner of the mare gets to keep the foal.
This is not a rule or law, just happens that more often the mother is found to be a more suitable parent than the father in custody cases.
No, if they are married they have equal custody.
