Greetings. I am not sure that I understand exactly. Who is the child living with now, mom or dad? If the child is living primarily with the dad, there is little to no chance that mom is going to be able to move with the child. Thank you.

During the school year the dad has him 4 days and we have him 3. During the summer we have him but he visits his dad every so often. Thats why we werent sure. He goes back and fourth between his dad, his grandparents (when hes not able to watch said named child), and us.We feel its not good for him to do all this moving. And with us there is two parents to tend to him and give him the attention and caring he needs. His dad lives on his own and is always working or hunting and just drags his son along.But if hes working then it makes it hard for him to tend to his son.
Greetings. If the child is showing some problems from the constant moving, then you may have some options, otherwise it is unlikely that you are going to change something that is working for the child. Good luck.

The child has even stated he would rather live with is mom.and now that its summer he is living with us. The mom wants to take him back to illinous.when i went to base legal they told me theres no custody established for either side so i didnt know if she can just take him back where they lived before.but since theres no court decision of custody and she lived there with him for 4 yrs can we go back and file there?without worry of kidnapping charges or is that pretty much up to the judge since theres no custody and she just went back.

Regardless of whether the parents were married, North Carolina has jurisdiction over child custody for six months even if the child is living in another state. If the NC parent does not file for custody during that time, then the new state has jurisdiction over child custody.
