Unless the child has been legally emancipated by the courts, no. A child must reach the age of majority in Georgia (18) before they may legally make the decision on where to live.

In Georgia if a child moves out at the age of seventeen is the parent still legally responsible for that child?

In Georgia, parents are legally responsible for their child until they reach the age of 18, regardless of whether the child moves out of the home before turning 18. This means that parents are still responsible for providing financial support, supervision, and guidance to their child until they reach the age of majority.


Does a child have to choose who they want to live with in front of their parents?

The Court orders the custody arrangement of minor children. If the child reaches at least 14, and a motion is made to bring the case to court, and the judge allows the child to choose, the child does not have to choose in front of the parents. The attorney(s) can ask the court that the parents be asked to step outside while the court and/or attorneys question the child.
