Custodial rights to a minor child are granted or not by the court after a custodial suit has been filed, heard and ruled upon. A non related person cannot simply file such a suit. DFCS or a like agency must be notified of the possible neglect and/or abuse of a minor child and an investigation must occur with the results of that investigation being made to the court with accompanying documentation.

When custodial changes are made voluntarily by a parent(s) the required legal procedure must be adhered to. This involves the parents submitting the proper documentation to the court, which includes among other things the names of the people wishing to accept custodial rights.

Persons engaging in civil action to take on the responsibility of a minor child, who have not been appointed by the court will be investigated by DFCS and other agencies before being eligible for the possibility of custody.

Can you legally live with your friend and their parents without them having custody of you?

Depends on how old you are but either way will you need parental permission. If it's far away from your parents someone should have temporary custody at least so they have the right to make medical decisions on your behalf in case something happens. And your friends parents would need to get child support for you from your parents. That is done in court.

Can a 15 year old move with her friends parents in texas?

In Texas, a 15-year-old can only move in with someone else if their parents or legal guardians agree to it. If the parents of the minor and the friend's parents agree, they can petition the court for a legal guardianship or custody arrangement. Otherwise, it would not be legally permissible.

Can a 16-year-old live with friends with their mother's permission if the mother has primary physical care in joint custody of the 16-year-old?

If the parents have joint legal custody, then Dad has an equal say. Even if they don't have joint legal custody, I would imagine that something such as this (allowing the child to move in with a friend) would be a sufficient reason for Dad to ask the court to award him custody, and he would likely have a very good chance of getting it.

Is it necessary for your family to invite themselves over to your friends and stay the night when your friends parents do not like it?

It is rude for parents to invite themselves over to your friends parents home without an invitation. There is no reason you can't enjoy time with your friend without your parents being there and the only time one of your parents should come to your friends home is to pick you up to bring you home. However, it is up to your friends parents to say something since they find it annoying.
