when they move out.
In Texas, a parent is typically no longer responsible for their children once they reach the age of 18, which is the age of majority. At that point, children are considered legal adults and responsible for themselves.
In the state of Texas a person becomes legally designated an adult at the age of 18. In most cases the parent(s) will no longer be legally or financially responsible for the child (an exception could be a child support order that stipulates a different age). If the parents so choose they may request their "adult" child to move from their residence.
In Texas, parents are legally responsible for their children until they turn 18, regardless of whether the child has moved out of the home. This means that parents are still responsible for their minor child's welfare until they reach the age of majority.
If you are 18 you are no longer a minor and can choose to live with either parent (or neither).
Yes. Child support is for the "custodial parent". If you are not living at home with your custodial parent, then they are no longer eligible to receive child support. However, the non-custodial parent can request a modification if the child is no longer living with the custodial parent and that includes a change of custody. A 17 yr old is not emancipated in Texas, unless proper procedures through the courts have taken place. If that is the case, then the custodial parent and child are no longer eligible for child support.
They cannot move out without permission. Until they reach the age of 18, the parent is responsible for them. That included determining where they can live. In Texas the answer is yes. The parent is legally responsible in some ways, but the child cannot be forced to come back if he/she runs away, the law will do nothing to bring them back, and for any crimes one is charged as an adult in Texas at 17.
In most jurisdictions, parents are not legally responsible for a 19-year-old daughter. Once a child reaches the age of majority (usually 18), they are considered an adult responsible for their own actions and decisions. However, some factors may still require parental responsibility, such as in cases of disability or financial support agreements.
17 yr old in Florida's rightsI don't know about Florida, but in Texas, a teenager can become "emancipated". This is a judgment given to the teen, if he/she can prove to the court, they are responsible and can provide for themselves. It gives the teen adult status. Makes the parents no longer responsible for the teens actions.
Yes, their child is 17 and has not reached the age of majority. Until that age the parents are responsible and make the decisions.
It's a general legal principle everywhere that parents are held liable for the actions of their minor children.
You cannot decide. You can have the other parent request a change of custody, but you cannot do it yourself. They will usually listen to your opinion in court, especially if you are an older teenager.
