Legal Question in Family Law in Kentucky

My sons mother has never had custody of her other 2 kids and she is now back in jail on a probation violation for failing a drug screen & not complying with other things that was required of her such as attending AA\NA meetings. Her parents & I are on good terms and are wanting to know if we can take custody of my son away from her? She even continuously spent his child support money on drugs & other things for herself

Unless there is a reason you are not stating, you should be able to ask for custody of your son regardless of her parents. Always good to have the help of the in-laws but you are the parent and absent some issue with you, you should be able to petition the court for custody.
