no of course not -.-
I don't think you can. :(
The parents can request the police to return the runaway to their home.
Assuming they're absent from home without their parents' permission, absolutely they're considered a runaway.
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.
In most places, a 17-year-old is considered a minor and may need permission from their legal guardians to move out. Without parental consent, the friend's parents may face legal implications for harboring a runaway. It is advisable to consult with a legal professional or social worker to understand the specific laws and options in the relevant jurisdiction.
As a parent, it is your responsibility to ensure the safety and well-being of your 17-year-old child who has run away. This may involve reporting the situation to the authorities, reaching out to local shelters and organizations for support, and communicating with your child to try and understand their reasons for running away. It is important to approach the situation with empathy and concern for your child's welfare.
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.
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 age of majority, which is 18 in North Carolina. Until then the parents are responsible.
Of course it is!
