Re: separation with children

"Children are not to be around significant others"

as a provision of a PSA(Property Settlement Agreement)is ambiguous and needs to be further defined, including what is meant by the term significant others.

And, yes, a party who has been awarded possession of the marital home by a court or by way of agreement, may install whatever locks she pleases.

Re: separation with children

Regarding the separation agreement, you may include such a provision if the parties agree. Typically such provisions prohibit overnight guests of the opposite sex until remarriage. If contested, the matter would turn on the impact exposure to the signficant other would have on children.

If you have sole possession of the home, you can certainly change the locks.
