The best way to get full custody of a child in which there is already a court order giving custody to the other parent is to file a petition for modification of custody.

I agree with the first answer. You should hire an attorney and file for full custody with limited or no visitation. Of course, your son should also request child support, just to require that she take some responsibility for the child.
