Legal Question in Family Law in California

My stepchildren are visiting from California for summer visitation, my 16 1/2 year old stepson came to us and said that his adult aunts and uncles had given and smoked pot with him on numerous occasions. He fills like he is not in a stable environment and is afraid that he is becoming addicted to pot, he has asked if he can come and live with us. His mother says no he can not, she wants to send him to some military school for 6 months. What do we do in this case, file something with the court to allow him to come live with us? Can she send him to military school without my husbands consent? They have joint custody.

You would have to file for a custody modification in whatever court issued the current custody and visitation orders.
