There is no such thing as "full" custody. Did you mean to say "sole" custody? If so, the father probably does not need to tell the mother the whereabouts of the child, but I would file a motion and ask the judge to be sure. Otherwise, yes, he must tell the mother, but I would still file the motion to try and prevent disclosure.
