Do children that are not in full custody count as tenants?

If you have a lease with someone and then later down the line they have children staying there that are not on the lease are they considered tenants as well (children are minors)? Can you evict a tenant for having children that they do not have full custody of staying at the house when you didn't know they would be prior to the lease? What remedies does a landlord have in month to month vs yearly lease in this situation?

If there is a per bedroom limit of people residing in the property, do the noncustodial children count for that limit? How does that work?
