There is no "magic age" in SC at which a child can dictate to the parents where he/she will live. I have written an article on this topic, which you can view here: http://bit.ly/f0WUsD
These are complex issues, and it is important that they be handled correctly. Therefore, it is important that you consult an experienced family law attorney to find out what options are available to you based on the facts of your particular case.
If you need more information, you can visit my family law blog (www.SCFamilyLaw.com) or our website (www.SpartanburgLawyers.com). I wish you the best of luck.
