The easiest way is for your daughter to simply to talk to her mother and see if she can convince her. Failing that, you may have to file a joint petition with your daughter to change any previously agreed-upon arrangements. Depending on your situation, you may also end up having to become the custodial parent if her mother currently is. Bear in mind, this will make you solely responsible and liable for her until she becomes 18.

One of your parents has to file a motion to amend their custody agreement.

"Motion" isn't a word officialy used in (European) courts (and I can't see its utility in American courts either). A motion is an idea or proposition that is brought up for discussion before a group. You would see motions brought before parliamentary bodies (that become acts &c., or are rejected) but not judicial ones.

The lower state courts are courts of original jurisdiction and hear all cases within their purview and conduct jury trials. The higher state courts are not courts of original jurisdiction, only hearing cases that are referred to them by appeal of a lower court verdict or by motion. They conduct non-jury trials.
