FAQ
What age can a child decide which parent to live with in NC? 200bThere is no magic age number when a child can decide who to live with under North Carolina law. When a child turns age 18 and becomes an adult they can choose to live wherever they want, but before then a judge can dictate where that child must live.
Judges decide child custody based on the best interests of the child. This decision can include many factors, such as the parents' living arrangements, each parent's ability to care for the child, the child's relationship with each parent, and any other factors affecting the welfare of the child.

A trial court can award equal custody to both parties, or grant one party primary custody and the other visitation privileges. In actuality, North Carolina judges rarely award a 50/50 split of time that a child resides with each parent.
Under North Carolina law, you have those rights as a father. In fact, unless you voluntary give them up, or a court orders otherwise, your rights as a parent are equal to those of the mother. You may even be entitled to receive child support payments from the mother.
