If you are an underage parent that lives with your parents they have a say in your life as it affects your child. They do not have a say over your child directly.

The most likely scenario is that the children will live with the other parent as long as that parent was not deemed unfit while the custodial parent was alive. If that parent was denied custody for cause the courts may consider another gaurdian should the non custodial parent still be considered unsuitable.
A child can say this at any age. Whether a Court would consider the child's preference at any age under 18 depends on state law.
The parent or guardian of a child has the final say about whatever medical treatment or therapy the child receives, unless a judge orders otherwise. Grandparents or friends do not have the right to overrule the decisions of a parent.
I say the child could unless if its court ordered that he or she cant
No, a child under the age of 18 in the US does not have legal right to decide where they would like to live. CPS will make a recommendation and the court will issue an order of custody.If that was the case, there would be a lot of children who still would want to live with their parents who, I take it, have neglected them.A bit more:If you are asking if Child Protective Services has a legal right to say where the child should live (meaning which parent), then no, that would be up to a judge. The responsibilities of CPS is to remove a child from a harmful, neglectful, etc. home, but not to say with which parent they have to live with. Only a judge can rule on which parent is the best for the child.
If a child is emancipated, the parent or guardian no longer has any say over the minor's life.
Usually, yes, since the underager is herself legally a child. But depends on the law in the country/state where you are.
In my state (Georgia) when a child is 14 and both parents are in a position to care for the child then the child can choose which parent he/she wants to live with. The judge will of course have the final say so, but the child's wishes are greatly considered.
it depends on who the child is and if you have hurt that child teased that child and things like that
The courts decide custody issues, and they do so on the basis of what they believe to be in the best interest of the child. If the child has an opinion about what is in his or her own best interest, he or she can certainly say so to the court.
