No, the legal age of majority for the state is 18. Be that as it may, any minor who has been placed in foster care, group home or other facility is under the supervision of the court must be released by the court even when they have reached the state's age of majority.
Yes.
yes,a 17 year old can quit school in virgina without parents consent.No matter if it high school,home school,or GED you can quit.your parents might see it differently,but they can not fight the laws in Virginia,if they try to fight it,the law would be in your favor not your parents.the state and the national school system consider you as an adult anyway at that age.......recent retired family law attorney of 24 years.
Yes! You can leave your family at any age but since your still young it is best if you stay with your family until you are old enough to get married
You could file for emancipation.
Emancipation of minors is a legal mechanism by which a child is freed from control by their parent(s)/guardian(s), and the parent(s)/guardian(s) is/are freed from any and all responsibility toward the child.
That is up to the judge as long as you are a minor.
No.

Yes, Required that he / she is 18, or 16 with parents consent.
Im not sure if they have to have parental consent or not...
No, the age of majority is 18. You would need to be legally emancipated if you want to leave home without parental consent.
i believe you can drop out w/out their consent. i would ask school directors if anything
In Virginia, the legal age of majority is 18. This means that an 18-year-old who is still in high school can legally leave home without parental consent.
Stay in school. Dropping out isn't cool. You drop out=You fail at life basically in today's economy
No. The only way to get married without parental consent is by being emancipated and going to school does not do that.
You have to attend High School if you are of school age if you are a US citizen. If you are of another nationality you would have to have the relevant visa and parental consent if you are under 18.
