What does the legal paperwork state? If you are legally bound to request permission from the other, then I would follow that before taking the vacation. Parents who are sharing their time respectively with the child should also provide optional visitation times if the vacation takes any of the visitation that the "other" parent is entitled to.

The non-custodial parent must notify the custodial parent of their intentions and the destination of their vacation. The custodial parent has the right to know where the child will be. Also, it is unlikely the visitation order provides that the non-custodial parent can keep the child out of school for a vacation. They would have no automatic right to do so. They would need the consent and cooperation of the custodial parent.

That depends entirely on the exact wording of the custody order. If there is a ROFR clause in the order this gives the other parent the first opportunity to care for the child if the other parent needs child care. This is a common clause in custody arrangements. If this clause is not in the custody order and the order is vague regarding this topic, I would suggest contacting the clerk of the court to find out where you can obtain information on the state specific laws as well as how to get legal advice and guidance.

You should share your plans with the custodial parents for your child's sake. If there is an emergency, it's best that everyone knows how to make contact.

In Mississippi can a minor choose which parent to live with if she does not live with the grandparent who has temporary custody and that grandparent wants to send her to live with her father?

Minor's are not allowed to choose with whom they wish to live, although the judge may speak with the child and take his or her opinions into consideration when making custodial decisions. Likewise, the grandparent who has temporary custody cannot release the minor into the custody of any other person including a parent without first obtaining permission from the court.
