If the child will be heard he/she has the right to say whatever they want.ClarificationCourts rarely require a child to testify in a custody matter and if they do, the judge is more likely to speak with the child privately rather than have them "testify" in court. The child cannot be "called as a witness" for one party. If the judge wants to speak with the child the parent cannot refuse.

The judge will then, in some cases, interview the child.
