You have to be emancipated. You have to show the court that you can support yourself. Get a job, place to stay, food, clothing, everything on your own. Not on welfare or staying with someone. Hard to do at 18, even harder at 16 or younger.

The guidelines are basically the same in every state but obviously there are a few minor differences. Joint custody consists of Primary Custody & Secondary Custody. The parent with primary custody is who the child lives with & the other parent has secondary custody.

Or if both parents agree on the child's decision then the child can live with either parent.
I will assume that by "custody officers" you are referring to personnel who watch over, and are in charge of, prisoners. If that is the case, then I would think that the answer is pretty self-evident.
