Yes, there are probably several, but I can only comment on one for sure. In Georgia, your parents cannot kick you out until you turn 18; however, you may leave on your own at 17, and the police will not force you to return. You also cannot be charged with being a runaway. This "loophole" in the law was created once Georgia (like other states) decided that a 17-year-old could go to prison. * It is true that in most cases the local police will not forcefully return a minor who is at least 17 to the family home. It is not true that parents, guardians and juvenile authorities in all US states do not have legal recourse regarding any minor who arbitrarily leaves the family home. There is no "loophole" in any state law that supercedes the states age of majority. The issue of a minor being declared an adult at 17 (or younger) specifically pertains to criminal offenses and has no connection to the age of majority law whether that law is constitutional or statutory. If the age of majority laws were not valid they would be repealed, legislatures state or federal do not establish laws that cannot be enforced.

In the state of Idaho, the age of majority is 18. This means that legally you cannot leave home at age 17. If you do, you can possibly be picked up by the police and taken home or to a juvenile facility.
