truthfully i don't think that they can get into trouble. There are kids that live in the foster care system and can be emancipated at the age of 17, and if your lucky 16. but for the most of them they age out at 18.
if you take them to court and the judge fills that you are fit enough to live out on your own then i think you are sol. But if the judge fills that you are not fit to be "kicked out" there might be some action taken. but it might not be as severe as you might want it to be.
