If a 17 year old is leaving with their father who does not have legal custody can the mother give them permission to live somewhere else?

It depends on what state you are in and if your mother has legal custody. In many states, she can assign a temporary guardian for the few months left until you turn 18. However, if your father objects to this, even without custody, it can still lead to complications.

∙ 14y agoOnly Texas has that law, but with significant restrictions. In all other states, it's a case by case basis, with the Judge interpreting the maturity of the child, and their intent, but this still does not override other evidence in the child's best interest. It's just a piece of the evidence.
