If my kids mother has a temper and has been arrested, but not charged with stabbing a guy doing a domestic fight. How can I go about becoming the primary custodial parent. Her mom has a couple of other situations where her angry has played a factor.

You need to file a document in the county of continuing jurisdiction and ask for custody.
