Can I leave Kentucky with my child if her father and I are not married
I am currently not married to the father of my daughter, but we have been living together for a year and a half in Kentucky. We have never legally or socially introduced ourselves as a married couple, nor do we file taxes together. We have never been to court over custody or paternity issues in concerns to our child. I'm afraid that our relationship is at it's end and I would like to return to California to live with my mother. He is a great father and I do not want to separate them, but I can not lead a healthy safe life here in Kentucky without the support I would receive in California. Legally, what are my options, what are our options?
