What if I don;t like where my soon-to-be ex-husband lies and he wants out young child to visit there?
My husband just filed for divorce. We have a two year old son and one on the way. I want my son to have a good relationship with his father and I do not want to keep them apart. But at the moment, my husband has chosen to stay at a residence that I am not comfortable with in regards to letting my 2-year old stay there. He is living with people that I don’t know (who have criminal backgrounds) in a very run-down trailer park. I also discovered that there are several offenders on file who live in the neighborhood and a registered sex offender at the residence right next door. Is there any way that I would be able to keep my son from staying there?

If you do not want your son staying in the location where your soon to be former husband resides you first need to discuss your concerns with him to see if he will voluntary agree to not have your children stay where he resides. If he is unwilling to do so, then your next legal option is to consult with a family law attorney to see what your legal options would be.
One option would be to file a petition with the court seeking an order precluding your children from staying where your current husband resides.
