Should teenaged children of divorced parents have the right to decide which parent to live with? Discuss.

It really depends on the situation of the parents. I mean if one parent, the favorite one, is a drug addict and that's who the child wants to live with, the child should not be given the option to live with sed parent. If both parents are financially stable to sane enough to raise a child, then the child should be able to choose who they want to live with. In court, some people can lie just so that the child will be granted to them and then they can collect money for being a single parent. I think it's not fair that the court should just assign the child to a parent. The child should be able to choose the parent they want to stay and live with, granted the child will be safe.
