MY brother lives in the state of Georgia. He has obtained joint legal and joint physical custody of his two children. My sister in law received primary care. My question is this....what rights does my brother have beyond his every wednesday and every other weekend and the vacations, holidays discussed? i.e. If he wants to take his son after school (instead of him staying in a latch-key program, to practice baseball can he do that without his wifes permission? Can he go to a 'family' dance even if his wife feels he doesn't belong? What exactly can he do as a joint/legal and joint/physical parent without needing her permission? we are very concerned as the childen are 6 and 4 years and want desperately to 'live' with daddy and 'visit mom'. The custody agreement was signed with no judge involvement. At the signing she verbally agreed that she would nature the relationship between the kids and their dad. The agreement states that both parents are capable parents. The therapist for the children wants my brother involved in the sessions but my sister in law does not. What is my brother 'allowed' to do without her ok. Thanks so much. I know what the term legal joint/ legal physical means.....but what are the rights!
