Will Ohio police get involved?

If I leave home to go live with someone like family in a state where the cops can’t make you go home if your 17, will I be allowed to stay because of this law or not because I left from Ohio? (I’ll be 17 when this applies)

Answer #1

And I’m pretty sure unless they are a legal guardian you cannot live with them. They could be charged with kidnapping in a way I think.. And you would be considered a runaway.. People WILL come looking for you and police might just get involved. Just wait until you’re 18. Time goes by fast.

Answer #2

We were just sort of talking about this in government class yesterday that when you live in a state that allows you to get your license when you’re only 15 years old, you can drive in a different state though you’re not 16. So I do not think this will apply to you because you are a citizen who lives in Ohio and must obey their state laws. So this 17 law in a different state wouldn’t apply to you because you don’t live there. I’m not completely positive though.

Answer #3

You need to be of legal age according to Ohio’s law to do any of this.
