She lives in Pacific County in Washington State right now. I'm pretty sure that WA state is handeling the divorce case, but I dont know very many details for sure. She really wants to go and live with her father and is willing to do anything needed to do that. I have heard how her mother is towards her. Her mother is always asking her to do things that the mother should be doing herself. She has a lot of chores at the house, for which she doesn't get paid hardly anything for, and her mom is always complaining about this or that to do with what the daughter is doing. The mother seems to always be nagging at her, and they get in fights often. She isn't treated badly or anything, but she does want to get out of that house.

I'm asking this for a friend.

She is currently living with her mom, but wants to go to live with her dad. Her mom wont allow her to move in with her dad. She has just recently turned 13 and lives in Washington state, while her father lives in Texas. She goes to visit him for a month every summer, but she wants to live with him permantly. Her and her mom dont get along very well, they fight quite often. So she was wondering what the laws were in her deciding where she wants to live. What are her rights in choosing which parent to live with.

I would appriciate it if you could tell me any of this. Thanks so much for any help your able to give.
