Yes. Unless you are married or unmarried but facing a paternity or custody suit or one has already taken place. If so you need written permission from the father or court approval.
Yes. 50/50 time sharing and equal decision making is not uncommon.

If not married to her and no existing court orders then she can leave. The court does have discretion to award 50/50 custody.
