About the Month of October. October is the 10th month of the year and has 31 days. Season (Northern Hemisphere): Autumn. Holidays. Yom Kippur. Columbus Day. Child Health Day.
MYTH: At age 12 and older, children can determine which parent they wish to live with, during a contested Florida custody case. TRUTH: Only at age 18 can an individual choose where or with whom he or she lives. While the Florida courts do consider the childâs wishes, they are absolutely not determinative.
Â· just now. 1  There are no concrete rules. It would totally depend on the Judge, the situation, and the child's reasons for making the request. 2  most states, the judge can decide if he/she wants to hear what the child has to say at age 13 or 14. Doesn't mean he/she will do what a child wants. In fact any adult who does what a child wants is a moron, and judges are not morons.
