Minors are not allowed to choose with whom they wish to live in any US state. In some instances the presiding judge will speak with a minor child and may or may not take the results of the interview into consideration when making custodial decisions. Custodial decisions are based upon the best interest of the minor child/children and not upon the preference of any of the involved parties.
Only Indiana and Texas has laws setting out a specific age at which a child can make a choice the court is requiredto abide by, and even than there are some limitations. With those states, it is age 14. In all other states, the general rule of thumb is that a 12 year old can express and opinion, however the judge is under not legal obligation to consider, or even hear it. In either case, a motion to the court must be filed for a determination to be made. However, the child should be informed that there are alternatives to choosing to live with just one parent. The child should also be advised they can express a choice that they remain in one home and each parent can live with them for a designated period of time, than switch. This is called Bird Nest Custody.
