Yes, 18 is the legal age to be considered an adult. * Mississippi has two age of majority laws, one is constitutional and one is statutory. The constitutional law sets the age at 21, the statutory law at 18. Which law is applied depends upon the circumstances of the individual matter. If an 18-year-old left the family home without permission and established residency in another state, his or her parents would have to be granted a court order to have the person returned to their custody. If the 18-year-old was employed and self-supporting, living in a suitable environment, such an order would not be granted. On the other side, if the person were living in a homeless shelter, in the streets or had become involved with the police for any reason the order would likely be granted.
