Answer #2

If you are 17 ((this is in texas)) you can legally move out at 17. All you have to do (if asked) is let your parents know where you are, and that you are okay. You have to have a permanent place to live and be able to support yourself. You can’t be jumping from house to house. I moved out at 17 with a place to live, and was able to support myself. I read the actual law at Wiki.. Good luck!

Answer #3

i dont think so sorry hun, you have to be 18.

Answer #4

Check this out…its not legal to move out at the age of 17, and you will be considered a runaway most of the time, but there is absolutly nothing your parents can do to force you to go back home.
