    Question: My parents are divorced with joint custody but I really don't want to spend very much time with my father. How are custody issues decided?

    Answer: In divorce cases the judge makes custody decisions based on what he or she considers to be best for the children. Changes in custody agreements are made only after the parents have formally requested a change and demonstrated that the change is best for the child. (A.R.S. § 25-403).

    My parents separated when I was too little to remember and I moved to Illinois which is 12 hours away from my dad and grandparents. I want to live with my grandparents and my mom wont let me because she thinks i'll end up pregnant or something. All i want is to be closer to my family down there and be able to let them know who I really am. I'd like to move in with my dad because he really hasnt been able to see me grow up and i only have a couple years before I have to go on my own. I dont want us to never be close and I know i'm close to my mom and step-dad. I dont know how to deal with it?
