That depends. Is he just having fun at his friend's house or something like that or does he actually want to run away? If the second statement is true, then....I think so.

Go to the law enforcement, in no state can a child move out without parental concent under the age of 18, except Texas and Missouri they can move out at age 17. even though you are not the custodial parent, it is still illegal for the kid to move out , the custodial parent might get introuble, if they didn't report the kid as a runaway, but the kid will end up in one of the parents homes. if the kid is a reported runaway, and refuses to go to either parents home they might get sent to juvie, but that's enough to scare any kid into comming home.
