Can my ex husband take my kid away?

Do you have a court order? If you have a court order, your boyfriend will have to file documents with the court to change the current court order. If there is no court order, either parent has the right to the child. If you are dating a sex offender, your boyfriend will not be allowed around your child. Although your boyfriend does not live with you, there is the off-chance that he may be around your child. Judges will protect the child.

Your ex-husband can file for custody of the child, or, if there is no existing order, both parents may "take the child." Having a boyfriend who is a registered sex offender will not help your case if the matter goes to court.
