If your son father name is not on the birth certificate and the child is carrying your maiden name and is living with his father means that now the father has sole custody of the child?
Do the kids make fun of him for having your maiden name? Did you give him custody of the child? Is he his guardian? If so, then yes.
If you are the custodial parent but work at night does the biological father have the right to take custody of the children?
If you have custody awarded or appointed by the court, the father will have to go through the court to get custody. Usually, to reverse such an order, he would have to prove that being in your custody is detrimental to the children. There is shared custody. They have lived with the mother since the divorce four years ago. He has not paid any money for support. Mother has had children more than the 50% of time. Mothers attorney said that father has rights to custody since the mother works nights and they are with her new husband. Since he is blood father he can take custody of children! I find this hard to believe but have to face the fact that it maybe true. I find it a great disruption in their schedule and hard to see a judge changing it but could it happen?
Can a mother and her boyfriend or husband file for full custody of the mothers children together that you share joint custody with your exhusband who is the childrens father?

Can a 16 year old decide to live with a stepparent if father dies?
First, it should be noted that unless expressed otherwise in the custody, the father can name a stepmother guardian of the children in his Will. This will not prevent a custody challenge by the mother, however it will place the stepmother on the high ground in the battle. I've seen dozens of such cases, working with Dads House, in 21 years involving boyfriends being granted Guardianship of the children after the mother passes away, resulting in the father filing for custody of his children. In this, the issue is not that the person is a stepparent or not, but rather that the person is named a Guardian in a Will. see link below

Yes you can. The legal guardian decides.
Can a fifteen year old leave town to visit their father without permission from their legal guardian?
It depends. If your father has part custody of you... then it'd be accepted more than if your legal guardian had full custody over you. My parents have joined custody so when I have arguments with my mom, if I call my dad and he's in the same state, he'll come get me in a heartbeat. But if your father doesn't have joined custody, or even less custody than your legal guardian, he can get in a bit of trouble for taking you if you go there.
