Yes, depends on country and state but as long as you are not considered an adult that can happen. However if you are a minor and the kick you out there are repercussions if the kid goes to social services. In some countries it is a felony, most have it as misdemenor but it often depends on the age as well. A kid which is almost adult can petition to be declared an adult by the court.
