A 17 year old child is still considered a minor. They could try to sue their parents for emotional abuse, but they would not be able to choose the home that they were placed in by social services. It is likely that the teenager would be placed in foster care for the duration of their childhood and then sent out on to the streets when the foster care money was no longer available (this point is when the child turns 18 and becomes an adult).
