What is the name of your state? AZ
What kind of weight would a judge put on the "wishes" of a 7yo? I ask because my daughter has repeated things back to me that her mom and I have discussed. I do not talk to her about "adult" things that her mom and I discuss, but her mom clearly does not follow that same practice. My daughter has also made comments like "I want to stay with my mom" and "I want to do what my mom wants". At the risk of her being called on the witness stand and the tauma associated with that, I would never bring these things up in court, but if her mom decideds she wants to make a point, how heavily would these statements be weighed?
