Yes, however if the other parent is disruptive, the parent might file a last minute injunction to stop it claiming you are moving away with the child. By the time it's cleared up, vacation is over.
No! There must be good reason and proof before either parent of a child can take total custody if the courts had already given shared custody between the parents of that child. It's best to seek legal advice to be sure you maintain the custody of your child. Good luck Marcy
TANF eligibility is based on physical custody, not legal custody.
ANSWER: Yes. Regardless of your age, you are still the mother. You will have legal custody unless those rights are terminated by the Court.
Having full legal or physical custody. If it is full legal custody the mother has given up any legal claim to the child. If it is full physical custody with joint legal custody the child will be in the legal custody parents home. She may elect to give the child up to be adopted by the stepmother. In many states (and maybe in all states) if the custodial parent dies, then the non-custodial parent gains custody, provided that that his/her parental rights have not been terminated (and just because he/she did not have legal custody does not mean that his/her parental rights were terminated). Of course, in that event the stepparent can still petition the court for custody. Check with a local attorney.
You, because you are the mother of the child. Unless you got the baby taken away form you and someone else has custody of him/her.
Shared legal custody means that both parents have equal rights to make decisions regarding the child. One parent may have physical custody with the non-physical-custody parent paying child support.
It is unlikely that the court would order "shared custody". If the mother is unfit the grandmother can petition to be appointed the legal guardian of the child. However, the father must consent.It is unlikely that the court would order "shared custody". If the mother is unfit the grandmother can petition to be appointed the legal guardian of the child.

If he wants his parental rights he must establish his paternity legally by a DNA test. He can then petition the court for shared custody, visitation and pay child support. The mother has sole legal custody of her child until then.
Primary legal custody means the parent/person with whom the child lives can make all the decisions concerning the child such as schooling, medical care, etc. unless the custodial order deems otherwise.

Generally, the person who has legal custody or legal guardianship of the child has right to the child's medical records. A parent who does not have legal custody is not entitled to the child's medical records. Generally, they would need a court order to obtain them.Generally, the person who has legal custody or legal guardianship of the child has right to the child's medical records.

This is not legal advice. For legal advice relevant to your particular situation please consult a qualified local attorney. Custody and Placement are two different things entirely. Simply put, placement merely refers to the place where the child resides. Custody is the legal right and obligation to the oversight of the child. Joint custody means that both parents have rights to the child (access to medical records, etc.)
After such long time it would be if the legal guardian is unfit. They would have to see to the child's point of view who has not seen her parent in 10 years and do not know him. Most likely would the parent get visitation and eventually shared custody. Eventually he has the chance for sole custody.
You indicate they have "Contact", but what is the status of Custody? If the Father has visitation, partial or shared custody, legal& or physical....No, you cannot change the Surname of the child without the Fathers explicit consent!!
