Does an unwed mother have rights to deny shared custody if the child's father has not established a permanent residence and currently living with one of his parents until he can afford his own place?

The following is general information only.
In order to acquire parental rights the father must establish his paternity legally in court. Once his paternity has been established he can request joint custody and a visitation schedule. Once his paternity has been established, the mother has no right to deny him his parental rights without a court order to that effect. The court will also issue a child support order. It is not likely that the court would approve such a reason for denying the child a relationship with her father. That arrangement doesn't endanger the child unless there are other factors not mentioned in the question. It would not be a bad thing for the child to visit with her father at a grandparent's home.

No, the mother is no more entitled to custody than the father. If the father currently has temporary or implied custody, then a custody order must first be established before you can get partial custody or visitation rights. For example, if you moved out and left the child in the care of the father, you forfeited your custody rights until an official custody order has been established.

Who pays child support when no legal custody has been established?
Determining child support has only one goal which is to determine medical, financial and daycare support. Custody is NOT determined when child support is established. To establish child support you have to go to court. Otherwise if the mother was unwed and paternity/custody is not established she automatically has sole custody which entitles you to pay her child support but you are not entitled to visitation, school/dr records etc unless she gives them to you... If custody is not established then the mother has custody

Not enough unfortunately. Usually, if the child is removed from both parents' care before legal guardianship is established, the child is remanded to the custody of the state. At that point, it becomes more difficult (and expensive) for grandparents to gain custody. There are heartbreaking stories all over the place of grandparents trying in vain to get custody of their grandchildren.
