More details to this question:
The non custodial parent and his spouse regularly become drunk with their friends around my thirteen and half yr. old. Also the stepson of the n.c. parent molested my 5yr old. I am waiting on CPS to interview that household to determine their course of action. My 13 and a half yr old does not want to go with the other parent or to his home. Does she have to go, can I refuse to let her go and back her choice?

The general answer is 16. The court will listen to a 14 year old but they are not able to make the decision themselves. If CPS decides that abuse happened yu will not have a problem.
