A: Normally in Texas the order states that you must keep each other informed of your employer, home address and phone numbers. Sometimes if domestic violence has been an issue, this requirement can be removed. Without looking at your legal papers I cannot address your exact concerns. If you have never been to court and there are no legal papers, be aware that he can come and take the child and there is nothing you can do about it without running to court and getting a judge to give you a signed order. If you don't understand what I'm said, please go see a family law attorney in your area for more advice.
