It all depends on the state the 16 year old lives in, there are many states where he wouldn't need his parents consent. Check the laws in your state. The department of families and children services should be able to answer that question, if not they can tell you who can. In every state a 16-year-old is a minor and unable to leave home without parental consent. He would be reported as a runaway, the authorities would pick up him and return him home, unless there was an allegation of abuse in which case they would likely turn him over to a shelter or child services while an investigation was completed. Any person(s) who takes him in when he runs away could potentially be facing some type of charges, such as harboring a runaway/interfering with child custody/etc (the exact charges depending on the laws of your state). With all that said, if there is abuse, then it needs to be reported. Just be sure you can back it up, because those are serious charges. I belive at 16, if you can prove that you can provide for yourself then you can get emancipated. But I'm not sure. Like the other two people who answered, check the state that you live in. I know when I was 16 I lived with a family because I got kicked out of my house. But my dad said that it would be a good idea if I stayed there. Only because me and my evil step-mom got into a fight and he always makes decisions based on her! So he tells me to go somewhere else. Sorry! I get carried away! My point was that if he has the okay from one of his parents and maybe writes it on paper that they came to an agreement and gets it signed maybe that would work. Once you write or type something like that and it's signed it's legal. From what I understand! Once it's signed then he's free to do what was agreed on. So take that into consideration. I believe it becomes a legal document. Anyways, good luck. Nairobi J. Hello,Who told you he was being abused? Teenager say many things for many reasons. and since you are 18, I can see that you would see things from his point of view. Perhaps there is alot more to the story than you can see.I would have to say thatunless he has a limiting disability and cant even get tto school to discuss this with a counselor,well in any case, it is not your place to "save" him.Is there sexual things between you two? Somehow I just feel that you could help him by leading him to a more proper form of help. i am not totaly sure if u can with out seeking social workers or children protection, there is never a reason for ABUSE! but running away is not an option be responsible and go to the law, plus that way you will earn more respect in the laws eyes. It all depends on the state but I would seek help before going and living with your friend!
