Frequently asked Questions

10.   Who decides who I will live with? Do I get a say?

Ideally, your parents will make the decisions together about who you will live with and how that will work.

If they can't decide themselves, they might go to a mediator for help in reaching an agreement.  Or they might have to go to court and have a judge make the decisions for them.

Whether your parents make the decisions about custody and access themselves, or with the help of a mediator or a judge, your opinion should be taken into account.
