Florida's age of majority is 18. The state does have early emancipation laws. One of the requirements that is needed for early emancipation is the consent of the minor's parent(s) or legal guardian. Florida Code... "Disability of Non-Age Minor Removed", Title XLIII, Section 743.015.
Leaving Home
The parents of an non-emancipated minor have the custody and control of such minor. This means that the parents can legally decide where the minor lives until the minor reaches the age of majority (usually 18) or otherwise becomes emancipated.
In most states, including Florida, a parent can ask a child to leave when he or she is 18. In some states, the child does not have to leave until high school is completed, but this does not include Florida.
Court orders, including court ordered visitation, must be followed until they can be modified by returning to court and placing the issue before the judge. A custodial parent who doesn't honor the standing visitation order is in contempt of a court order and the court can order a modification of the custody order if the contempt continues. A child cannot refuse to visit the other parent until they reach 18 years of age in virtually every state in the United States. This would, of course, include Florida.
In Florida a person can remain in high school until they are 21 years old. This is also the case in most states.
A child can leave at home in Florida at age 18, when he or she legally becomes an adult.
