My child wants to live with her Father, can he change custody based on her preference?

No. A court will not change custody from one parent to another solely based on the child’s preference. The child’s preference is only of many factors that the court will consider when one parent files for a change of custody. Depending on the child’s age and maturity level the court may indeed question the child as to her preference; nevertheless, the child’s preference is not the determining factor when a court is faced with a change of custody motion.
