My daughter will be 17 in two months. I have joint custody with her dad ( my ex husband) She lives with him for past few years and has asked to come live with me. There is a history of him being verbally and emotionally abusive and many episodes of him fighting with his live in girlfriend ( one time they both were arrested) my daughter is becoming scared and anxious and is begging me to live with me. If I have her in my state for a scheduled visit can I bring her to the court and ask for her to live with me? Will the court listen to her request since she is older? I also have a recommendation from her therapist she should live with me.
