Legal Question in Family Law in Connecticut

I have three children at home that are great students and very respectful. I also have a 14 year old boy with my ex wife that is been big trouble for years in school at the sitters ect. I had begged my ex wife to let me have him so I could raise him with morals and respect she never wanted to do that but never spends and time with him. He has straight Fs in school and just got a court date for spray painting in the school restrooms, now that he is older and harder to control she says that she is going to go to court and give me full custody of him wheather I want him or not. We live in USA state of Ct. can she force him on me without my consent? I realy dont know what to do because I love him and want the best for him but I cant control him and I dont wnat him to set a bad example for his younger brothers and sister. Also I have always paid child support and picked him up every weekend, holidays and he spends weeks at a time with me for the summer. So can she force hiim on me?

No. But, you still would be responsible for the support payments.
