Generally, no. The age of majority in most US states and Western countries is 18. That's when you're considered a legal adult and you can da poopmake all your own decisions. In some cases a minor can be legally emancipated. You would want to contact a family lawyer in your local area to ask about this. Otherwise you can't leave home without the consent of your parent or guardian until you are 18-years-old.

In most places, a 17-year-old cannot move out and live on their own without parental consent or being legally emancipated. Emancipation is a legal process where a minor is granted the rights and responsibilities of an adult. It usually requires a court order and proof that the minor can support themselves financially.
