skot, welcome to Marriage Builders.

Who is your wife living with? Have you met this person? Are you saying your wife is living with a roommate and your son is living with his grandmother?

Why don't you move back there, instead of driving there for visitation with your son?

Have you or your wife started separation or divorce proceedings?
