ya have to be 16 then you can get emancipated and you have to have $10,000 or a way to support yourself. That's the way it is in MT at least

Check with local/state laws.\nSome places have a minimum age under which a child cannot go door to door without parent supervision.

A minor over the age of 16 may petition the court to become emancipated.  This allows her to be independent.  The link below explains and offers more information and links to forms.  Otherwise, she is stuck there until 18.

Technically, no, a parent can’t legally kick their child out at 17.  The child is a minor until the day they turn 18 and according to the Texas Family Code, a parent has “the duty to support the child, including providing the child with clothing, food, shelter, medical and dental care, and education” (along with many other duties and rights) provided that the child is not emancipated in some manner such as marriage or court decree.\n\nWith that said, I’ve known a lot of 17-year-olds that needed to be kicked out and have a dose of reality.  While the parents can’t legally kick them out, they can make their life at home very unpleasant by taking away every extra they have, grounding them, etc.  And the police can’t actually FORCE the parents to take the child back in.  They can, however, put the child in the custody of the state.  \n\nIf you’re worried about your nephew, send him money for a bus ticket to come to your house.

as soon as he is mature enough to handle it & can support himself\nall my kids moved out at about 18/19 - 2 boys 2 girls\nbut I feel that unless there are extenuating circumstances then most definitely by 25 - prior to that if you are employed  then you should still be contributing to your keep at home;\n even if you are a student & on a limited income there are ways in which you can help out ; take responsibility for your own laundry; cook some meals; clean up after meals; mow the lawn;help with the housework - after all you contribute to the  "mess"  so you should be partly responsible for cleaning up.\ndo make sure that you ALWAYS tidy up after yourself.\nyour parents have done their job - it is now time for them to live their own lives again

MOVE OUT.  You are 21...your mom has no right telling you when to be home.

No i don't think you can. Legally your parents still have control of you until you are 18. But, then again some states may allow you to move out at 16. Check out your state's government website.

No. They cannot legally leave their parents until the age of 18.\n12 is out of the question, since they're not allowed to join the work force at that age.\nIn some instances, they can go to court at the age of 17, possibly even 16, and have a judge declare them legally emancipated (free from parental control), but that is rare. The circumstances would need to be unusual.

You're an adult at 18 in any state in the union.  You can sue for emancipation before that, but you'll need a lawyer.

I don't know in TX, but in another States 12 is the age.  But check with an attorney or even better try to deal with your child.

You can petition the court for emancipation at the age of 16 in NC.  This means that you can live on your own or determine your own guardian.  But it does require that you work through family court.  Your best bet is to see if there is an answer/question line - website for your county social services.\n\nYou can try the website listed below for a start.

It is generally recommended that children younger than age 10 never be left at home alone. In some states it is even illegal to leave children younger than age 10 home alone on a regular basis. \n\nBy the age of 11 or 12, some children can stay home alone safely for up to a few hours.\n\nI'm not sure though the actual law in Texas. The website I have listed is an artice and in that article it mentions something about not until they are 15.

As others have said, you must be 18 to get married without parental consent. You can leave home at 17 if your parents allow it, but if they do not, there is little you can do to keep them from making you come back home. If they do try to do that, you can petition in court by arguing that you are in fact emancipated because you care for yourself, but really, it's simpler to wait until you're 18; it's really not that long to wait.

18, unless you successfully petition the state for emancipation.  You must be 16 and have resided in the same county for 6 months in order to petition for emancipation.\n\nBe prepared for an uphill fight.

There is no minimum age to leave a child home alone in California.\n\nThere are, however, some significant laws on the books for child endangerment, and leaving a child home alone can be endangerment depending on the circumstances.

depnds on their lease contract. I think Texas requires at least 30 days notice.
