The courts in most Australian states will listen to children's preferences, but they don't get to make the choice.Is there some age at which children of divorced parents can have a say in where they live?
Various states in the US have that, and the age varies from state to state. It's 14 *somewhere*. Don't know anything beyond that.
Same would apply to my kids if something happenned to me - they're deemed old enough to know what they want, but not old enough to know what's best for them (which is probably a fair attitude).
Cheers Russell C.
