How old does a child have to be to decide which parent they want to live with in Colorado?

Answer 1

Minors are not allowed to make the decision as to which parent they prefer to live with. In some cases concerning older teens a judge may choose to interview them as to how they feel about issues such as the school they are attending, friends, and so forth. Regardless of what the child or parents may want the judge will make the decision based on what is in the best interest of the child/children.

Answer 2

You can ask a child to leave at the age of majority, which in most states is 18. There are a few states where it is older, such as Alabama (19). To do so before the age of majority (unless the child has been emancipated) is illegal.
