Yes. I am a family member that has full legal custody of a my grandychildren because both parents were found unfit by a Juvenile Court and Children Services agreed because of "best interest of the child" The parents were given 22 month to work a court order caseplan, but failed to comply so I was given custody of the children. The parents have visits on the 2nd and 4th Saturdays of the month and no overnights. The parents were also ordered to pay monthly child support.

If you have joint custody can your teenager live with either parent?

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. Depending on the age of the child & the state in which they reside, the court may let them determine where they choose to live. Or if both parents agree on the child's decision then the child can live with either parent.

It's important to ensure that the traveling parent has the necessary documentation, such as a notarized letter of consent from the non-custodial parent, to avoid any legal issues during the trip. This helps clarify the travel arrangements and confirms that both parents are aware of and agree to the travel plans.
