A:  David's Answer:  If your question is whether you get to choose who babysits your children in your home, then generally it would be you. That said, if there are no custody orders - and to the degree disputes are already cropping up between you & the father - you're best advised to file a petition in Family Court for a custody order. Speak to a Family Law attorney in your area.  -- David Bliven, Westchester Family Law attorney (www.blivenlaw.net)
