Legal Question in Family Law in Indiana

My husband has 2 children that live with their mother. He provided a cell phone for his oldest son to be able to communicate with him any time. He is now grounded, and she took the phone my husband pays for away until 2 week grounding is up. This should not be used as a punishment. How should we handle this?
