Best Answer

The laws vary by state and by country.

In the US, seventeen states have laws against possession of alcohol by minors, but they do not prohibit its consumption by minors. Fourteen states specifically permit minors to drink alcohol given to them by their parents or by someone entrusted by their parents. Many states also permit the drinking of alcohol under the age of 21 for religious or health reasons.

In some countries, the legal age for buying Alcoholic Beverages is based on the ABV (Alcohol by Volume) and some levels of ABV may be bought by those age 14 and up or age 16 and up.

There is no legal drinking age in France and consumption of alcohol at home is not restricted. However, it is forbidden to sell any type of alcoholic beverage to a person younger than 18 years of age.

In Germany, control of the consumption of alcoholic beverages is in the hands of parents and guardians. Beer and wine may be consumed by minors at the age of 14 in public and in the company of their legal guardian, but you must be 16 years old to buy beer and wine and 18 years old to buy spirits.

Can a seventeen year old move out of the home in Utah without involving Division of Child and Family Services or the courts?

A single seventeen year old in Utah technically must have a parent or guardian until they reach the age of eighteen, however, they do not need to live with this parent or guardian. So, yes, they can move out of their parents house, but they must do so with the parent's permission. The only exception to this rule that I know of is a married seventeen year old. If a parent or legal guardian gives permission for their seventeen year old to be married, once that seventeen year old is legally married, they no longer need to have a parent or legal guardian.
