Q: My son's wife just gave him divorce papers, does he have to move out right away?
He is going for full legal and physical custody of their 3 !/2 year old son because he was and is the primary caretaker. She is threatening him that if he goes away for the weekend with their son, she can make a case against him because they will be staying with us. (The grandparents, his mom and dad)
A: This seems to be a tense situation. If your son's wife just gave him divorce papers, he does not have to move out right away, but maybe it's better if he does. I don't know what type of case she thinks she can make, but taking a child to his grandparents' house doesn't seem threatening.
