Unless she is doing drugs now or dealing with drugs she is not unfit to be around the child. Many people have minor charges from their teen years but are great parents when older.
No, he has the same rights as single fathers, none until granted them.
Temporary custody yes, if the other parent, who's moving, has been granted permanent custody but has no place to live at the moment. If you are married and can't agree on custody you have to go to court and let the judge decide.
If you are not married, which I assume considering your ages, it's always the mother unless the father has been granted custody by the court. If not married he should petition the court for visitation rights and shared custody or he does not have much to stand on if she says no.
No. Custody must be granted by a court order unless the parents are married. If you are unmarried and want to give temporary custody of your children to your "fiance" it must be done through the court. You haven't mentioned whether the "fiance" is the father of the children.
In every state except Arizona the mother has sole custody of the child and the father has no assumed rights until granted them by the courts.
If you are not married the custody automatically falls on the mother and the father have to go to court to get visitation or custody. If you are married you have equal rights.
No. If your mother has sole legal custody she can consent to your getting married.

If the parents are married, than no, but if the are not married, the mother has sole and exclusive custody, than yes. In that case, the father will need to file for his rights, and an emergency injunction, if there's a concern the child is being relocated.see related link
