My boyfriend and I have 3 kids together. We moved to a different area because he had a better job opportunity. It was in a very productive area so I figured it wouldn't be hard for me to find a job since I was a teacher at the time, but I was wrong. The economy has been hard on those plans.

I say all of that to say I have been an stay at home mom and out of work now for two years and we are starting to have problems. The house we live in is his and just the other day he put me out of the bed room and now I am sleeping on the couch. I can't live like this. I have family that lives about an hour away and would like to take the kids with me. Can I just leave? There has never been a custody agreement between us. Honestly I want to leave without telling him then setting up a visitation agreement with him after. I'm sure he would like 50/50 and I don't have a problem with that.
 
Are you staying in the same state? He could file for cusotdy and ask for the kids to be returned. Also keep in mind that since you are creating the distance you might be stuck doing all the transportation to visits. Keep that in mind. At the minimum you'll have to do 50%. Honestly I would file for cusotdy first and ask for permission to move. Also I would be finding a job asap as you'll need some sort of employment. You can file for child support and half of daycare but not sure how old your kids are. You had 3 kids with a guy you are not even married too, daycare might cost you a fortune.
 
Yes, It is about an hour away. Are you saying file for custody even if we live in the same house? I have one child that is school age and the other two are 3 and under.
