    Pretty much, depending on which state you live in, you're at and have been at the age where you can say who you want to live with and nobody can say otherwise. I know that when I was 12, after years of my mother fighting for me, the courts let me go with my mother, no questions. I live in PA. I don't know what the age is now, since I'm 28 and a lot has changed since then but you're almost 16, that's got to be old enough. Talk to your mom about it and ask her to get legal advice. That's probably the best option. Good luck hun :)

    Yes, I think your mom will have to petition the court for a change. If she's stable and responsible and you want to go live with her, the chances are quite good that the court will allow it. It's going to take some time to make it happen though. If your dad is against it, your mom should get an attorney to handle it. Let us know how it goes.
