If your situation becomes intolerable to live at home, confide in a trusted adult like a school councilor or a trusted relative, and discuss your feelings and why you need to leave home, they will guide you as what to do. Just to run away with out a word to any one is a lousy idea and very dangerous.
The police will bring him home as a runaway. Until he reaches the age of majority, 18 in Michigan, a minor is expected to live where their parents want them to live.
The parents can request the police to return the runaway to their home.
In Indiana, a minor is considered a runaway if they leave home without parental consent before the age of 18. To avoid being classified as a runaway, the 14 and 16 year olds would need legal permission from their guardians or through the court system to live with their stepmother after the death of their father. It's advisable to consult with a family law attorney to navigate this situation properly.
You should be living at home at 14. You are too young to live on your own at that age.
Little Runaway was created on 1952-06-14.
Bring you home.
From home?! No!!
A 17-year-old is a minor and therefore does not get to choose where they live. Ever heard of the Becca Law? It was passed in WA after a teenage runaway was murdered. It basically gave parents more 'power' in dealing with runaway/disobedient/truant children. You would be considered a runaway and you would be returned home.
Avril Lavigne did not run away from home!She has a song called runaway that's all.
If the 17yo is a runaway, yes. It's illegal to help a runaway from home.
No. It's illegal to harbor a runaway so your parent would get into trouble.
Have the permission of your parents. Until you reach the age of majority, you are their responsibility. They get to determine where you live.
