No, two 16 year olds cannot legally live together without their parents or legal guardians unless they are emancipated. In most jurisdictions, minors under the age of 18 are not considered capable of entering into legally binding contracts like a lease agreement for housing.

When is a child declared emancipated in nys and are the nonconstodialsl notified?

In New York State, a child is typically considered emancipated at age 21, unless they are legally married or join the military, in which case they could be considered emancipated earlier. When a child is declared emancipated, the noncustodial parent should be notified as they may no longer be obligated to provide financial support.


Can you legally move out when you are 17 and can your parents do anything to stop you?

Laws vary by location, but in many places you cannot legally move out until you are 18 without parental consent. If you do so without permission, your parents could report you as a runaway. It's important to check the laws in your specific area and consider discussing your situation with a trusted adult or legal professional.


Can you get in trouble if you move out when you're still 17?

In most places, you can't legally move out when you're still 17 without parental consent. If you do, your parents could report you as a runaway, and you might face legal consequences or be brought back home by authorities. It's best to discuss your situation with your parents and try to come to a solution together.


Can you legally leave your parents at 16 in Texas?

In Texas, a minor who is 16 years old cannot legally leave their parents without their consent. The age of majority in Texas is 18, so minors are considered to be under the legal control of their parents until then. If a minor leaves home without permission, it could be considered a status offense unless they are emancipated by a court.


What is the legal age in Philadelphia to move out?

Unless you have been legally emancipated by a Court of Law, or by marriage (which is an act of permanent emancipation), you must be 18 years old before you are legally an adult. You could move out with your parents permission, but they would still be legally responsible for you. For example, you cannot legally sign a lease agreement unless you are an adult, so your parents would have to sign the lease for you to get an apartment. And then they (not you) would be responsible for the lease agreement.

Could a sixteen year old get emancipated because a parent argues to much?

Sorry but this doesn't seem to be a reason to be legally emancipated. If the parent is abusive or under the influence often when arguing then it is possible.


What does the law say about leaving and living alone at age 15?

You would need to get legally emancipated, or legally deemed an "adult" by a court. Something that is extremely rare and difficult. Minors (under the age of 18) cannot sign contracts, leases, open bank accounts, or enter into any legal obligations without a parent or guardian, so even if you could get emancipated (again, EXTREMELY rare) you would be very limited in what you could accomplish on your own.


Can a 14 year old leave they're house legally in any way?

Only if your legally emancipated from your parents which i don't think would be approved for a 14 year old.. maybe there would be a better possibility at 16, and at 16 you could get married and automatically be emancipated..but you need parental consent. you could get married at 15 but you would have to go to court and be pregnant.


If you went to boot camp with your parents' consent and became legally emancipated and got sent home for medical reasons would you still be legally emancipated now that you're home and still under 18?

That's a question for an attorney in the state in which you were emancipated. However, assuming the emancipation was not conditional (such as you remaining in the service), you probably are. The real question is this: If you're emancipated, what are you calling "home?" If what you're referring to as "home" is where your parents live, an emancipated individual would be a guest in their home and obviously could be invited to remain (or not) at their pleasure.


Can you be 17 and legally move out of your parents home without being emancipated and can i have the actual law that says so?

No, you cannot move out without parental permission. The key here is the age of majority (adulthood) in you state, which is normally 18, but could be as high as 21. If they are an adult, the parents are no longer responsible.
