Q: It was his mother and husband who banned him.
But even though she has full custody, does she have the right to send him to live somewhere else to go to school and to live or do I have the right to have say so about him living with someone else if he is not living at home with his mother. Also I'm paying child support on him and he is wanting to live with me and he is 13. Is that the legal age to where he can choose to live with who he wants to
A: 12 and up they have a say, but not the only say in where they live. If she has sent him to live with someone else, but is collecting the child support, document it and hire a custody lawyer.
