What age does a child have the right to decide who(parent) to live with in Georgia?

Question

What age does a child have the right to decide who(parent) to live with in Georgia?

Answer

A child age 14 has the right to make an election. However, the Judge has the discretion of whether or not to grant the election. If there is a custody order in place, only a Judge can change custody.

Answer

A child can NEVER decide. At age 18, when the child becomes an adult, he/she can decide. At age 14, if either parent files a change of custody suit, a child can file an election. A judge is not bound by that election. However a judge will consider it.
