In all states, the general rule of thumb is that a 12-14 year old can express an opinion, however the judge is under not legal obligation to consider or grant the child's request. In either case, a motion to the court must be filed for a determination to be made.
A child is free to decide which parent to live with in every state once they have reached eighteen years of age.
