In West Virginia, a 14-year-old cannot unilaterally choose to live with their grandparents; parental consent is typically required. However, if there are concerns about the child's safety or well-being, a court may consider their wishes in custody decisions. Ultimately, the legal process would involve the parents, and potentially a family court, to determine the best living arrangement for the child.
