Can you get custody of your child if the mother is underage and you are not?

No. A court would not remove a child from its mother's custody for that single reason. The court would not punish a mother for being underage by removing her child from her custody and reward the man who caused the pregnancy by having sexual relations with a minor. In fact, perhaps you could be prosecuted for having sexual relations with a minor. You would need compelling evidence that the child is not being cared for properly, enough to convince the court that the mother is unfit.
It is assumed that you are unmarried. You need to establish your paternity in court. Once established, you can request joint custody, visitations and the court can issue a child support order based on your state's child support guidelines.
