Can my 17 year old child leave her father's how legally and come live with her mother?

Answer 1

Yes the police can get involved and bring you back home unless you have been emancipated since you are not legally an adult until the age of 18 so I suggest that you go back home until your 18 or get your parents consent to move out of their house to avoid all legal action hope this helps...Good Luck and God Bless!!

AnswerUnless you PROVE that you are in danger of physical or emotional harm being at home with your parents, they most likely will make you go back home.

answer...

In some some states the police can get involve and can force you to go home,but some states has a age limit of 19 or 21 before you can leave home.but I do know that in Virginia if you leave home at 17 there is nothing your parents,law enforcement,or juvenile courts can do.cause if they bring you back,you just leave again,and the law is to busy doing other things,then waste time on you.I know this for a fact cause a friend of mine live's in Bristol Virginia,and I am an attorney who live's in Boston,and know some laws in Virginia as far as juvenile law is concern,but any way his 17 year old daughter took off 2 months ago and he called the sheriff department,the deputy who showed up had experience with juveniles and is a juvenile probate officer.the deputy told him that there is nothing they could do about his daughter,she is of age according to Virginia to make her own decision's.the deputy also told my friend that no matter if they know where she is at or may be at,they will not interfere,the only way that the law can inerfere is if she got into trouble with the law,but other than that she is on her own.

Answer 2

It depends. You can ask a judge he will decide. ALSO If your parent gives you consent...yes. ANSWER - Any change of custody requires a court order. This is true regardless of what the parents may arrange. In the end, it protects both parents. Therefore, the parents may reach an agreement, but it must be sanctioned by the court. If the parents cannot agree there may need to be acourt hearing. As part of a court proceeding, a court may consult with the 17 year-old regarding his or her preference. The child should be prepared to give good cogent reasons why he or she is making this particular choice. However, the court will make the final decision.
Not until you are 18 can you choose.

Answer 3

If your parents are divorced and your father has full custody then there is a good reason for this. If this is not the case and there are no problems and you just went out on your own and want to go home then it's up to you and your mother to sit and talk about it and decide what is best. Can a 17-year-old move back in with his mother? Of course, if his/her mother has said it is all right with her. But, she must be asked first, and she must say yes. Then, she is allowed to lay down any rules she chooses for him/her to live by. If they are not obeyed, she is within her rights to evict. Cathy Williams

Answer 4

If you live in the US... No, not unless the minor has parental permission to move or they've been legally emancipated in some manner such as marriage (requires parental consent) or court decree (rarely granted, and even more difficult to obtain when the minor has a child to support). Getting pregnant/giving birth does *not* emancipate a minor.

Answer 5

Only Indiana and Texas has laws setting out a specific age at which a child can make a choice the court is requiredto abide by, and even than there are some limitations. With those states, it is age 14. In all other states, the general rule of thumb is that a 12 year old can express and opinion, however the judge is under not legal obligation to consider, or even hear it. In either case, a motion to the court must be filed for a determination to be made. However, the child should be informed that there are alternatives to choosing to live with just one parent. The child should also be advised they can express a choice that they remain in one home and each parent can live with them for a designated period of time, than switch. This is called Bird Nest Custody.
