It is not clear what you are saying in this question. If the question is whether you can take the child out of state, that will depend on two things: First are you married to the other parent and second, is there an existing custody or parenting order? You want to consult with a family law attorney before taking any action that could have difficult and negative consequences, as in being charge with kidnapping.
