A Motion for Custody has to be filed whether it be Joint Legal, Joint Physical, or Bird Nest Custody. In all, the father has to be prepared to deal with the same challenges as he would attempting a Full Custody of his child(ren). Joint Legal Custody is pretty much the standard in most every American State, but Joint Physical is more difficult. Bird Nest Custody requires almost unprecedented cooperation and commitment to the children.

This is a matter of custody. If you do not have legal custody of your son, then those with legal custody, whether court or other person, can control where your son goes.
If he does not have a court order for visitation or custody he can't take him anywhere. If he has partial custody he can take him out as long as it's in agreement with the custody order. He can't take him as in moving away. You should ask your lawyer who knows more about your case.
