Yes, he can get in trouble. Depending on the Age of Consent in your state, which I believe it is 18, and with him being 25, you are a minor. You would need to Emancipate yourself to move out. Not sure what you would need to do, but if it is something like abuse, you need to talk to a school councilor. \nIf it is because your Mother will not let you see this guy, then I am afraid there might not be much you can do...

I don't know of any state with laws that allow drop-outs until the age of 16.  Many states, even then, demand that parents have to sign the documents, too.  In the state of Indiana, a youth under the age of 16 cannot 'move in' with anyone else unless legally emancipated!  And, from the spelling of your question, it seems you would be doing yourself a favor to stay with a family where you CAN continue to go to school.  There are no employers out there where you can make any kind of basic salary who will hire someone without proof of schooling.

Yes a 17 year old can move out, but if you want a house or an apt. then you have to have a parent or someone 18 or older to sign off on it. plus you have to have a steady job to prove you can keep your head above water. but school and healthcare are a problem because you are still under your parents care untill 18

The law most likely says that you cannot. Often times, you must be 18 or older to find a place to live or have utilities. Then most places have a credit check...odds are that you have none.

Depends on the state. In South Carolina, the child can leave without permission at 16, but cannot be forced out. At 18, the child can be forced out. Ask your local social services.

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

Well, there's a legal answer and a real answer.\n\nThe legal answer is that until a child is 18, the courts have jurisdiction to determine custody and visitation.  The courts can simply mandate that the child live with the mother and the child has no say.\n\nThe real answer is that there is almost no way to make a 17 year-old stay anywhere he doesn't want to.  I mean, he'll just run away.  So courts give great deference to the wishes of a child of that age.\n\nThere still may be times when the child's wishes will be disregarded.  If the child wants to live with a parent who is known to be an alcoholic or drug addict or dangerous criminal, the other parent could get an Order of Protection in favor of the child.  It would actually be a crime punishable by jail time for the drunk parent to take the child in.\n\nBut it's very rare that a 17 year-old will want to return to such a patently unsafe situation.\n\nConsult a family law attorney for more specific advice.

Do you have a job and means to support yourself?\nEither way, I don't believe that Ohio has an emancipation law. Thus, neither a minor nor the minor's parent is able to file a petition for emancipation.  From what I have read, a minor can achieve independence from a parent in two ways in the State of Ohio:  (1) Lawful marriage; or (2)Successful enlistment in any branch of the Armed Forces.\nHowever, in the event of divorce or annulment, or discharge from the Armed Forces before the age of 18, custody of the minor will automatically revert to the parent who previously had custody over the minor.\nYou cannot just become emancipated because you don't like your parents or the place that your family moved to.  Can't you find a way to make the best of things for 15 more months?  Being on your own is not what you think it will be~you might want to think about any decision seriously.  If you are only wanting to emancipate yourself because of where you live~well, it sounds you like you are still very young.

A 17 year old could move away from home if they have their parents’ or legal guardian’s permission, like to go to college. Or, a 17 year old could become legally emancipated and enjoy the same freedoms as any other person who is at least 18 years old. In some states, emancipation is automatic if the 17 year old gets married. It could also be ordered by the courts.

There is no process for emancipation in Georgia, aside from automatic emancipation at 18 or when married. With your parents permission, you can move out at 17.

First it does not matter, you are under the laws of your state, so if your state does not allow you to leave home till 18, if you ran off to another state, you could still be brought back to your state by the police and face charges in Juv court.\n\nAlso in no state in the US can you sign a legal contract,\nrent a house, get electric power and so on,  so even if you moved out, you would need an adult to do all the legal contracts.\n\nThere are a few states that allow 17 yr olds to move out.

No.  I wasn't allowed to stay home alone overnight until I was 17.  At ALMOST 15, she could be charged with negligence if anything happened to you.

If you're 18, there's nothing he can do to stop you.\n\nJust make sure you know where you're going to stay & how you're going to pay the bills, because once you're on your own - your on your own....  Good possibility you won't be welcomed back home.

I live in Michigan, it is legal. My son did this against my wishes, the court said I could not stop him, they also said I could not stop him from moving back in either. Don't make the mistake, he dropped out of school, he had no job, no car, he ended up on the streets. He is now 23 and not much better off. Stay in school and stay at home! If there are other things going on at home, you need to get ahold of Child and Family Services. Good Luck
