Why can't I move out when I finish High School?

I am 17. I want to move out when I get done with school on feb 26th. my mom has custody of me but I live with my uncle. she says I cant move out till I walk acroos the stage for graduation. but by that time I’ll already be 18. and my view is that im 18 and can do what I want. but she says since I havnt walked she can still tell me what to do and when to do it.

Answer #1

just wait till you walk across the stage…what is that may/june ? thats not that long I mean you have made it this far

Answer #2

Once ya hit the big one eight then mom doesn’t have legal custody over you.

Answer #3

Why do you want to move out? - Trust me , you will miss your moms house, rather finish with Graduation and get a degree then move out,

“Honor thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee,”

They usually know what is best for you, you will regret moving out,

Answer #4

my advice foru is 2 wait until your 18 then tell your mum your leaving and if she says well you havent walked across that stage you can tell her that you are a legal adult now and can makeur own choices… hope it helped ;]

Answer #5

Yep it’s true. Once your 18 you are free to choose your own destiny. So just wait till then.

Answer #6

Once you’re 18, she can’t stop you from leaving - she can tell you you can’t, but that holds no legal value.

Answer #7

Once your 18 you are a legal adult and can do what you want.
