This depends on whether or not the children’s parents were married when the child was born. If the parents were unmarried when the child was born, in most states, primary custody is automatically awarded to the mother. 

If you were married when the child was born, you and your spouse will automatically share joint legal and physical custody over your child.

You’ll need to file a complaint for custody. Before you do this, you need to determine whether your case will be heard in domestic relations court or juvenile court. This varies case-by-case, and we always recommend working with a lawyer to figure out what the best course of action is for your case.

In order to claim the right to know where your child is during visitation, you need a custody order that states each parent is obligated to disclose their child’s whereabouts to the other parent during visitation time. 

If you do not have a custody order, the other parent is not legally required to share this information with you. This is one of the many reasons it’s advisable to work with a lawyer.
