My experience is that 17 year old boys are not in to taking care of children, but they greatly enjoy playing mind games with a 15 year old girl and her parents. If you seriously feel that he might flee with the child, you'll have to go to Court to obtain a permanent injunction to prevent him from taking the child out of state, restrict visitation to a supervised visitation and make him put up a bond for visitation and child support. I don/t know if the judge would do all of these things or if you want to go to court to obtain these remedies; but these are just some of the options that might be available to thwart a smart aleck juvenile father
