How far away can your ex-wife move if you have joint custody but the children live with her?

Since you have joint custody you would have to go to court if she chose to even move to another town several hundred miles away and if she decided to move to another State or country, she would need your permission. Going to court provides equal opportunity for you and your ex to share the children and to come to a decent compromise. Marcy

Do you have to see your children if they are out of State?
If you have joint custody by the courts to see your children and you can afford to fly to see them or, have them flown to you then you should do so. If this is a financial difficulty then no, you do not have to see your children out of State. If you find it does not fit into your lifestyle or you do not have adequate care for the children when they are with you and you are away working then you can go back to court and give full custody to your ex. If you love your children and it is financially possible you should at least spend one or two weeks of holidays with them.

Can a father get full custody if the mother moves herself and the kids in with her lesbian lover and the father does not agree with the mothers lifestyle?
The courts can rule either way and it depends on the gay laws in your State. Some courts may still grant the mother full custody if they feel the environment is safe for the children and many courts prefer the children to be with their mother. It is worth it to fight this in court, but for the sake of the children you should go for joint custody. Children only see their 'mom and dad' and know little else. To be taken away completely from one parent is extremely traumatic for children.
How can a father gain custody rights to his children in the state of Kentucky?
If the parents are unmarried the father must establish his paternity legally. Once he has established his paternity he can petition for custody, visitation and a child support order can be established. Unless you can prove the mother is unfit to be a parent, it is really hard to take custody away from the mother in Kentucky. However, a father may be awarded joint custody or/and a visitation schedule. He should seek the help of an attorney who specializes in custody issues.
Custodial parent has suddenly passed away Father with joint custody has tried to retrieve his children but the grandmother will not let him remove them from her house What can he do?
If the mother had primary residential, than the grandmother has a right to the children, but this not not preclude access rights. This is why this needs to be addressed in the custody decree. You may need to file a custody challenge to be granted primary residential. But, if you are being denied access, that's interference with custody, which could become a police matter.

If department of social services took custody of children away from the mother can the father get custody if they are separated pending divorce?
YES, IF YOU ARE GOING THROUGH A DIVORCE, YOU NEED TO ASK FOR CUSTODY AS PART OF THE DIVORCE SETTLEMENT. THIS WOULD BE THE BEST TIME TO DO IT BECAUSE IF SOCIAL SERVICES ALREADY TOOK THE CHILDREN FROM THE MOTHER , THE JUDGE WOULD EASILY GRANT YOU CUSTODY THE CHILDREN.
My ex and i have joint custody of our kids. hes being stationed in Korea and says he has the clear to take our kids. i told him that i dont consent to him taking them. what else can i do to stop him?
If you have joint custody, then he doesn't have the right to simply pick up the kids and move away. You should contact a lawyer and discuss the issue with him or her. The lawyer will explain to you your rights and what you should do next. Unless you and your ex can work out this issue, most likely the issue will go to court and the court will decide what is best for the children.
What does it mean when your ex said to you rudely get away from me?
Unless you and your ex have joint custody of children then you should be having nothing to do with your ex. 'Ex' means the relationship is over so your ex is expressing his frustration that he wants you to leave him alone. Short of an ex picking up their children the couple should each have their own private life.
