Re: child custody
Yes it is possible as long as the move is justifiable. Given that you have family in the new location, you have a pretty good argument for the move. The counter argument is that your son would see less of his father. His father may try to get custody changed as a result of your plan to move. Ultimately the standard is what is in the child's best interest.
