Not arbitrarily. The age of majority for the state of North Carolina is 18. That being so, a minor is not allowed to choose which parent he or she wants to live with. In most custodial cases a child who is deemed able to understand the matter at hand will be interviewed by the judge who has jurisdiction in the custodial case. It is at the descretion of the judge whether or not to speak with the minor child/children. The judge also will decide whether or not the knowledge garnered by the interview will be used in deciding which parent should retain physical custody of the minor child.
