Minor child wants to leave custodial home to live with non custodial parent?

First, check out the logic of the child's "want." Does it make sense to you and your ex for this to happen? Could the other parent be more appropriate for day-to-day raising of a teenager? For example, common wisdom is that if the child is a teenage boy, it might be for the best for him to go to Dad. However, if the child wants to move because of disagreement with household rules, both parents may want to come to an agreement that, come what may, the move will be permanent. Allowing a child to use the non-custodial parent as an escape to problems regarding rules, schooling and so on, may result in "flip-flopping" households whenever an issue comes up. And, these issues will come up regardless of where the child lives, because that is the territory with teenagers. Of course, if there were issues with the non-custodial parent to begin with, then those will need to be added to the equation. In my personal life, I had to leave teenagers in Texas when I moved to Arizona. It was their choice, but they knew there was room in Arizona. The household I left them to was not the best; however there was just 4 years left until college and it was, in many ways, a short term decision. I missed them, but they are now in their twenties, and are doing well.

∙ 10y agoAssuming the non-custodial parent wants this too, the non-custodial parent can petition the court to change the custody order. The minor's wishes should be taken into account by the court (this does not mean the court will do whatever the minor wants; if the court still feels the minor will be better off with the custodial parent, then they may decide not to modify the order at all, or they may only modify it to increase visitation).

Can you move in with your mother in California if she doesn't have any custody of you and tell the court that you want to move in with her because you don't get along with your step-parent?

Depending on the child's age the court will take into consideration the opinion/feelings of the child before rendering a decision.

If a child is 18 and moves out from his custodial parents house but is still in high school does the non custodial parent still have to pay child support?
Yes. A different view: If the custodial moves out of state and abandons a minor, then the custodial parent should be charged with endangering a minor, child abuse and neglect. Then the non-custodial parent should be given full custody of the minor child, and should then sue the parent who abandoned child for child support. There is never any reason or excuse for a parent to abandon a minor child, and leave them to "fend for himself". That is child abuse, child endangerment and neglect.
Does the non custodial parent need permission to leave the country?
By law, you must both go up to the location where they will issue a passport and both parents must sign a statement saying it is okay. If you have documentation that shows you are the custodial parent, you can have your child "red flagged" with the government and this way if he were to try to get a passport for your child they would have to notify you and then you can stop it. In the US the non-custodial parent can leave if they choose, they cannot however take a minor child with them unless a court rules otherwise. • This depends on your custody agreement, but I'm fairly certain a non-custodial parent needs permission. Just like a custodial parent will need permission depending on what the custody agreement states. I do know, however, that a custodial parent can get a passport without the permission of the non-custodial parent if he/she meets certain requirements. is that parent's name the only one on the birth cirtificate? Does that parent have sole LEGAL custody?
In Florida what is the legal age for leaving home with or without the custodial parents approval?
In Florida, you may leave home at 18 without the parent's permission. If the the child is still a minor, the parent may report them to the law enforcement agency for their area and report the minor as a run away.
