I believe the age is 13
Depends upon the persons will, relatives, non-custodial parents and the judge
If a child wants to live with the non-custodial parent, the parents will have to go back through the court system to change the custody agreement. Most states will allow the opinion of a 14 year old child as to where they want to live.
Child support and visitation are two separate issues. The custodial parent can file a suit for child support but cannot deny the non custodial parent custodial or vistation rights is said parent wants those rights. That being said, the non custodial parent can file for custody or visitation regardless of whether the child support issue is addressed or not. Such matters are decided by the court if the parents cannot find an equitable solution.
After the child is aged 13 or so, if circumstances are similar and the parents agree, the child gets to choose. However, an 18 year old is really legally an adult.
Then the child should petition the court (or have the non-custodial parent petition the court, more likely) to modify the custody order. If the custodial parent is "gone for most of the year" and leaving the child in the care of someone else, the court will probably consider that a significant factor.
If a 13 yrs old child wants to move out of mother home does the father still has to pay child support
Absolutely not. Shelter, food and clothing basics are it. If the child wants phone service, he/she should go to work and earn the money. Or, if the non-custodial parent differs, and the custodial parent agrees, he can pay for it.
When they are 18. The court order must be followed but the parents can have it modified when the child gets older. When in his older teen years the court would listen to what he wants but they might not follow it.
No. The non-custodial parent has the right to a visitation schedule in order to maintain their relationship with their child even though the parents have ended their marriage. If everyone is on good terms the child's needs can be taken into consideration and the non-custodial parent can consent to reduced visitations. However, once the court has issued a visitation order, and the non-custodial parent wants to take advantage of that schedule, it must be followed until the order has been modified by the court for good reason.No. The non-custodial parent has the right to a visitation schedule in order to maintain their relationship with their child even though the parents have ended their marriage.

Yes,the dead beat is expected to pay up.
most likely yes....non custodial parent usually pays child support until the child is out of college. That means if the child wants to get their masters and go to college for 8 years non custodial parent pays child support the whole time.
A minor can not choose where to live. That is up to the parents or the court depending on the details. If your non-custodial parent who lives out of state wants you to live with him/her, they have to petition for custody unless your custodial parent will consent to the change and join in a modification of the custody order.
