What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? NJ
My wife and I have been separated for 5 years. She moved 4 years ago about an hour drive away into her boyfriends home with my 4 kids. My eldest is 18 and in college, I have a 15 year old son, 13 year old daughter is on the autism spectrum.mild but its there, and a 10 year old daughter. The mother works 5 to 6 overnight shifts a week. My kids are in the home with the bf all those nights. I bothers me a lot. My 13 years old told her counselor shes not comfortable with the living arangements and wants to live with me. So we set up a family counseling meeting, my daughter told her mother and the mother just cried and said she doesn't want this to happen. my youngest daughter calls me at night crying because she misses me. I do have them every other weekend. My question is if I rent a place in the same town can I take the kids and move them into my place? we have no court ordered agreements. we have not even been to court to start the divorce yet.
