Can a 15 year old decide to move in with grandparents and make them legal guardians?
So I am 15 years old and my father and mother divorced when I was 2. My parents decided to have joint custody but then my father moved to Michigan. So I go visit him in the summer. And come back to North Carolina for school. We never really got along. It was never a perfect relationship. So we have are downs. But my dad recently married. She makes me feel like crap about 90% of the time. Saying things such as "My kids need clothes more so I can't but clothes for you.". So we don't really get along. So I don't want to move up there. But my mother doesn't make me feel any better.
I'm sorry to hear your situation has been so frustrating for you. I understand it can be difficult accepting your parents' decisions both as they relate to your living situation as well as their own remarriages. Unfortunately, they still have final say over where you live until you are 18 years old. I know that's not the answer you want to hear and hopefully they allow you to spend lots of time with your grandparents until then.
