If your son father name is not on the birth certificate and the child is carrying your maiden name and is living with his father means that now the father has sole custody of the child?

Do the kids make fun of him for having your maiden name? Did you give him custody of the child? Is he his guardian? If so, then yes.


What if a mother goes away with another man and leaves her children with father for 5 daysshe is having an affair and is going out of state..?

There is no law that stops the mother from going away with another man and leaving the children with the father. However, these circumstances would make it difficult for the mother to win custody of the children in court.


How does a father get temporary custody of his child?

To my knowledge, if a state agency is not involved because of negelct or abuse, your mother-in-law can get temporary custody if you go to family court and ask that she take temporary custody until you are ready to take them back; it could be because you are having financial difficulty, hospitalization or other issue that you need to deal with As far as your mother-in-law getting custody against your will, I don't think that can happen. If it is happening, you need to contact your local Child Protective Services.


Does the unmarried mother still have custody of a child if that child has the fathers last name?

If you live in the US... The child having the father's last name has NOTHING to do with custody. If Dad is listed on the birth certificate as the father, then both parents have equal custodial rights until a court declares otherwise--you need a custody order. If Dad is not listed on the birth certificate, it will be a simple thing for him to petition the court to establish paternity and once that's done he can then petition for custody/visitation.


How can a father gain custody of his children from the birth mother without having a job?

My son's father will not let me have my son. What can I do?

If the father has full custody, you can't do anything. If you have a custody agreement set up, that includes you having visitation -- take the father to court. If there is no agreement, take him to court, and get it settled. You failed to mention the jurisdiction where you live, marital status, whether there are any existing court orders, whether the father has legal custody and where the father got the authority to prevent you from seeing your child. You need to add details. See related question links.

Can a child live with his father if the mother has parental responsibilty?

If a child's mother has sole custody then the courts have decided this and there is a reason for it. Generally, if the mother is a good mother (fit mother) then the children will be looked after by her with the father having partial custody to see his children. If the father is unfit, then the mother would have full custody. If you are the child asking the question and are upset because your mother has house rules and you don't always agree with them then this is not a good reason to want to live with your father. Your mother gives you these responsibilities so you will learn good characteristics that will make your life a whole lot simpler. You may not see that now, but will in the future. If this is the father asking the question and you have partial custody the courts have deemed it this way for a reason. If the mother is unfit and the father wants to take full custody then you should retain a lawyer asking for full custody.
