Legal Question in Family Law in South Carolina

There is no bright line age. It is whenever the minor shows enough maturity to be capable of making such choices.

There is NO magic age at which a child can dictate to his/her parents where he/she will live. The Court is required by statute to take the child's preference into consideration at every age, along with the reason(s) for said preference.

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.
