she keeps turning off the kids cell phone at her house and taking it away from them.... BM does not have a landline phone, this cell phone for the kids is more than just communication it is for emergencies....
Can anything be done about her taking it away from them while they are at visitation with her?
Every time someone calls them while they are there, it goes strait to voicemail.
FDH pays for the phone. He also has primary physical custody.
There is nothing in co about it, FDH has just always allowed her to call and talk with the kids, and until recently she did the same...
This has just happened in the last month or so.

Why does there need to be a working landline? I haven't had one for years.

BM lives in a place without a neighbor in walking distance.
Without a landline, and the adult with a cell phone gone. Yes, there needs to be a phone.

So, leave the kids with no way to contact someone in an emergency?
It's a simple phone, no games or anything on it.
It's just for communication with his kids.

The mother does have a cell,...
But the reason we originally got the phone was because SD8 told FDH that BM boyfriend is coming into the bathroom and helping her shower. Among other things that we can't get proof of and that BM is blind to. And BM boyfriend does not have a day job, so he is the one around while BM is gone.
And he is alone with the kids, a lot.
The "emergency" phone is for the kids to call someone when/if something is happening to them....
Yes, we do use the phone to call and talk with the kids. BM uses it for that too.
The problem comes when BM has taken away their life line to the outside world, if they needed to contact someone because BM boyfriend is threatening them, or hell, for any reason!
This is not a normal situation, BM did not get custody for a reason!
Give the kids a cell phone
Give the kids a cell phone with no service. Even a "dead" cell phone can call 911. (at least in US)
And instruct the kids to use if if ANYTHING makes them uncomfortable. It will only take a couple of times of the cops showing up for her to change her mind.
Thank you! I knee about that,
