In North Dakota, custody is called ?parental rights and responsibilities.? When a judge makes an order for parental rights and responsibilities, s/he will decide two basic things: ?decision-making responsibility? and ?residential responsibility.?

A court might find a ten year old in one case mature enough to express a preference, but find otherwise regarding a thirteen year old in another case.
