My sons dad has been out of town for over a year in a court ordered rehab, but he will be back this month and I know he wants to be in his life, but we were never married both of our names are on the birth certificate. We do not have any type of custody agreement on paper, child support anything. I am scared that he could pretty much take off with him and there is nothing I could really do immediately. The way I understand it in the eyes of the law we share equal rights as far as his custody goes. I need to know where to start to get this on paper. I am single mom and am not sure I can afford to go through a lawyer. Please Help, thanks
