What age can a parent kick there teenager out of the house just because they don't want them there anymore?

Answer 1

Answer

• What I'm finding in Texas State Law is that you can't legally just throw a teenager out of your house without first pursuing legal action. Legal action includes reporting your child, especially in cases where the teen threatens physical harm to a family member. It's a multi-step process but if you keep your wits about you and stay calm you can make this happen legally. Eventually what happens is that your child would enter the juvenile detention system in worst-case scenarios. The other options include letting your child live with a friend or other family member, marriage, or military service. Personally, I'm pursuing the latter of those options. I don't care for my son to be raised outside of a structured environment other than my home or the military. I know the rest of my family does not want him living at their homes because he can be very disrespectful and now with his physical size there is no "making him do something" under physical duress. He will live by my rules in my home or he will live in the military under their rules if he wants to leave sooner. If he runs away, which I really hope he doesn't as he really doesn't understand how hard life can be, he is in for a big awakening, and not one that a parent wants for their child.

Additional Information:

The best way for a parent to legally handle their unruly teen is to pay a school that has a reputation for supervising them properly. This could be a military academy or a private school that specializes in unruly teens. There are programs that are covered under some insurance plans.

Answer 2

In the US, the answer would be yes only if the question refers to whether or not the parent who has visitation rights can refuse to assert those rights and/or return the minor child to the primary custodial parent before visitation has formally ended. If the question refers to a parent forcing a minor to leave the residence without taking steps to insure his or her safety and well-being, then the answer would be absolutely not.

Answer 3

No. The parent is the guardian and in charge of the minor. They can call for help, place the child into a program for at risk children, send them to another parent or grandparents, but not kick them out.

Answer 4

If they are still a child (under 18 in most places) they are still responsible for them and could be charged.

Answer 5

Yea if they don't behave.

Answer 6

at 18 years.
