    printer friendly version

    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).

    I love my mother and stepfather,but I want to live with my dad.I'm 13! I shold be able to make my own decisions about who I live with.But my mom won't let me. It's not fair. I should be able to choose without the judge making the dicisions I don't want.
