The simplest way would be to discuss the matter with your parents. Your desire should carry a lot of weight with them. Failing that, the parent that wants you to live with them can file a motion for modification of the custody decree. At the hearing (if it's needed) the court will listen to you and take your wishes in to their decision.

a 16yr old cant make the choice only the court can
Presuming the question regards which parent gets primary custody in a divorce, most family courts in the USA will given extremely strong consideration to any preference a child states, particularly older teenagers. However, it is up to the judge in the court to make the final decision, based on what the judge sees as the best interests of the child.

∙ 12y agoWith parental permission or by getting emancipated by the court if that is an option in your state. But in order to be emancipated at this age you have to show you can take care of yourself and moving in with the other parent is not really showing that. As a minor you can not legally choose where to live. Your best bet is to speak to your parents about this. What was right 10 years ago might not be right today.
AnswerYou must talk with your parents about a consensual modification of the custody order. In order for you to move in with the present non-custodial parent permanently the custody order must be modified.
