First of all she doesn't get to make that decision in a year. A child can not decide who to live with until they are 18. Your x would have to take you to court and depending on the judge he may ask her WHY she wantsto live with dad and her saying "Mom wants me to make responsible decisions." isn't going to cut it.

Maybe you should work sometihng out with your x and let her live there for a set amount of time. (Until the end of the school year maybe?) Back off and let him handle all the day to day responsibility such as getting her to do her homework. Or work out a 50/50 parenting schedule. One week with you, one with him. It's a lot easier to be a softy when you only have your kids a short amount of time. If he hasn't had a chance to do the actual parenting then he hasn't had the chance to be stern with her.

When we were together, you said you'd die for me. Now, I think it's time you kept your promise.
