I am 14 years old and I want to live with my mother. My parents have been divorced for about 5 years. How can I live with my mother?

Your mother would have to file for custody of you. At the hearing you could make your wishes known. There's no guarantee your mother will get what she asks for but it's the only way of getting it to possibly happen.

It is not normal for a man to get full custody, was there some serious issue why the mom did not have you to start with ? Is that problem solved

1. one way is you ask your dad, he says OK, and sends you

2. your mom will hire an attorney and petition the court to admend the court order to allow her joint or full custody,

In most states, at your age, you tell the judge where you want to live. The non-custodial parent will have to file a petition to modify the previous child custody order.
