no of course not -.-
I don't think you can. :(
Assuming they're absent from home without their parents' permission, absolutely they're considered a runaway.
The parents can request the police to return the runaway to their home.
Until they reach the age of majority, the parents are still responsible for the child. They get to determine where they can live and can report them as a runaway.
Yes, he could have charges brought against him. Until you are an adult, your parents are responsible for you.
The police will bring you back home and your parents will not trust you for the longest time. Running away from your problems is not the way to deal with it. Everyone who helps you risk being charged with aiding a runaway which means prison.
The cop is wrong. A 17 year old can be reported as a runaway and the parents are still responsible for them in Michigan. While police would rather not get involved, the parents are within their rights to request and receive assistance.
Yes they can. But only if the parent is not being responsible.
Of course it is!
In California, parents are generally considered responsible for their minor children, including a 17-year-old runaway. However, since the age of majority is 18, the legal responsibilities may vary depending on specific circumstances, such as the reason for the runaway and any involvement of law enforcement. Parents can face legal consequences if they are found to have contributed to the situation or if the minor is involved in illegal activities. It’s advisable for parents to seek legal counsel to understand their rights and obligations in such situations.
The age of majority, which is 18 in North Carolina. Until then the parents are responsible.
The child does not have the right on Missouri. At this point the child is considered a runaway, so you file charges.
