When he is 18. Nothing can change a court order but a court order. You’ll have to take it to court. Yes, he is 14 and will probably be able to voice his opinion to the judge, and yes, at his age it will probably carry a lot of weight. However, it’s up to the individual judges who makes the final ruling in the best interest of the child and after considering all the circumstances in the case….not, necessarily just what the minor wants.
Bottom line, you'll need to file for custody modification.
Good Luck!

if the law has not changed in Miss when I was 14 I could drive in Miss. So you might look in the law forum for Miss and see what age they can make their on dicision. You should file for custody with a lawyer since you are the bio dad. Most states will give custody to the bio parents if it is in the best intrest of the children. Can you give the children a home and inviroment that is in their best intrest?
