Father and I are currently in court for custody- no final agreement as yet. What is the appropriate sleeping arrangements for my 5 year son when he’s with his father?

  • By: David Bliven

Q: The father lives in a 1 bedroom apartment with the living room and kitchen combined. Although my son has his own bed, whenever his girlfriend is over, my son’s bed is pulled into the living room/kitchen. Within the last 12 months, my son has witness 3 separate woman (not at the same time) sleeping in bed with his father.

A: I can’t necessarily say whether that it, or isn’t, inappropriate as it may depend on alot of factors such as spacing. That said, you may request that the court order CPS or Dept. of Probation to conduct a “home study” as they would be the proper entities to opine on whether the arrangement is inappropriate. Schedule a consult with a Westchester Family Law attorney for a full assessment.
