There are no hard-and-fast rules as to the age at which a child is considered mature enough to testify as to a preference regarding residential responsibility. A court might find a ten year old in one case mature enough to express a preference, but find otherwise regarding a thirteen year old in another case.

In Minnesota, there is not set age limit on when a child can decide which parent to live with. The court will consider the child's wishes to the extent that the child is sufficiently mature to express reasoned and independent preferences as to the parenting time schedule.

The North Dakota Department of Human Services says they recommend a child must be at least 9 years old before he or she is left alone. North Dakota says ages 0-8 must not be left alone under any circumstances.

In North Dakota, custody is called ?parental rights and responsibilities.? When a judge makes an order for parental rights and responsibilities, s/he will decide two basic things: ?decision-making responsibility? and ?residential responsibility.?

Nonresidents may not hunt on lands owned or leased by the North Dakota Game and Fish Department, including state wildlife management areas and Private Lands Open To Sportsmen (PLOTS), for the first week of pheasant season. This restriction applies to all types of hunting, not just pheasants.

While North Dakota does not offer a lot of variety to the nonresident, it does offer a lot of opportunity when it comes to deer tags. Whitetail can be hunted on an over-the-counter archery tag but nonresidents wanting to hunt mule deer, or rifle hunt either species will need to draw tags in the lottery.
