Legal Question in Family Law in California
My two teenage kids (16 and 15) don't have any regular contact with their father . My question is if I die do they automatically go to their father ? Them being the age they are do they have any say in wether they would want to live with him, and is ther anything legally I can do to prevent this . Both children have stated they would run away if sent to their fathers.

There is nothing you can do ahead of time. They go to the father unless they are taken away by Protective Services, or he voluntarily gives them up to a relative for guardianship.
