Answer I believe that in a lot of States, one has to be at least 16 before you can do anything legally, but to find out for sure, there must be a Children's Aid Society not far from where you live or on the net. Why not contact them and see what your legal rights are. I'm from Canada and our laws aren't always the same, but I know from past experiences, usually if you go to court with this, a judge will hear you out, to get your full side of the story. One more thing to take into consideration is that your father was awarded custody because apparently your mother couldn't provide you with the care and attention that you need as a young person. There's always reasons why courts grant custody's to fathers rather than mothers, and this has to be an extreme case as usually the mother gets full custody with the father having visitation rights. Maybe you feel that your mother could do a better job, but evidently the courts didn't believe that, this is why you are living with your father. Good luck
