Not at 11 but at 13 the mom would loose custody of the child and never have to see her ever again. Happened twice to my friend both when her kids turned 13. She has no custody and pays child support to children she can’t see. Even if the dad lets the child drop out of school a judge would still give sole custody to whichever parent the child wants to live with at age 13.[/quote]

There must be more to the story than this. While it’s not uncommon for kids to say they want to live with the other parent, it’s VERY unusual to lose both partial physical custody and all visitation and not be able to see your kids at all.  i have seen this once when the parent who lost all contact was bipolar with a serious alcohol problem, refusing medication, and so intrusive and inappropriate that the child did not want contact.

This person posted about losing custody at 13 is a totally wrong and his claims have zero legal merit.  He is spreading false information and should be ignored.  The situation would not happen in any of the 50 states.  There must be a lot more to the story if someone lost custody of a 13yo.  [/quote]
