Full Answer
Guardians need to seek court approval so they can formally be appointed a guardian. The guardian should have a strong relationship with the child.

Texas does not allow children to choose where to live at any age. After the age of 12, however, the court may consider the child's wishes in conjunction with other factors. An attorney can submit details of the child's wishes as a motion to the court. The court will then weigh other factors and make a decision.
