It depends on the court. Some courts have waiting rooms for children, but you can't bring them into the courtroom. Other courts allow them. I don't know where you are, so I can't tell you specifically; you have to check with the court clerk.

Some state and local court websites have information like this too. For example, the first related link below is the answer if you're in California.

You can check the second related link below for information about courts in any state; find your state and look in Self-Help Resources for links to court procedure info. Or find your state, find your county and court, and you'll see the contact info for the court clerk so you can call and ask.

Added: AGAIN - depending on the court system - unless the Judge wishes to interview them, minors whose family's are undergoing civil action are excluded from Family Courthearings (divorce - child support - custody) due to the (usually) highly emotionally charged events taking place there which might cause them psychological trauma.
