Well, on one hand, I would say you do because it is your life, and you should be able to decide, but you also might not because you are not an adult, but if you were you wouldn't even have to live with a parent. So, what I'm trying to say is that I think you should have some, if not a lot, of say in the matter.
A minor cannot leave the home of the custodial parent without that parent's permission. The noncustodial parent can petition the court for custody rights pertaining to the minor child. Depending on the child's age the court will take into consideration the opinion/feelings of the child before rendering a decision.
No you cannot move out of your parents home at the age of 17 in the state of Illinois because at the age of 18 you are legally considered as an adult.18 years old. i think it's the same in most states.
If you wish to move out before you are 18 you will need parental permission.
When you have joint legal custody you need file a motion to get permission from the judge to move out of state. Judges will look at this request very seriously and the other parent will argue with the judge as to why the child shouldn't leave the state. Be prepared to have solid reasons as to why you should move out of state with the child and how will you cooperate with the other parent regarding visitation and etc. You need to be responsible adult and work with the other parent since they are a half of a parent just like you. And you wouldn't want the other half to do the same with you if its not right. Proceed to motion if you truly have a solid reason to take the child out of state otherwise if you lose the motion than the other parent can use that against you now and later to apply for full custody of the child making you look bad in front of the judge. We deal with a lot of cases where one parent just wants to leave the state and we have to fight tooth and nail to stop it. :)

Until you are 18 you will need parental consent if you want to move out.
In most places, a 15-year-old cannot legally move out of their foster parent's home without permission from the child welfare agency overseeing their placement. It is important for the teenager to discuss their concerns with their caseworker or social worker to explore possible solutions and ensure their safety and well-being.
Only if the minor's parents consent to the move.
Foster children are generally placed through the state they reside in. Foster parents are certified through the state. So, no, unless there is a court ruling allowing the move, it is not legal to move to another state with a foster child.
Depends on where you live but generally you have to be 18 to decide.
No. Having made poor decisions and become pregnant does not give you rights to make more decisions, nor to move in with another child. If you choose to leave your parent's home it is quite possible you will end up in foster care or a state facility.
the legal age would be after you finish teenage.
In most states, a child can legally move out of their parent's home at the age of 18. However, some states allow minors to leave home earlier with parental consent or under certain circumstances, such as being emancipated by a court. It is important to check the specific laws in your state regarding this matter.
You can if you parent agree.
They aren't the same. Adoption is becoming the legal parent and foster care means the state is the childs guardian. The state makes all important decisions regarding the child and the foster parents have no rights, the state can just come in and move the child to another foster home for no reason. Adopted children are yours forever.
The minor would need permission from the court that placed her with the foster parents before she could move into her grandmother's home.
Find a house. Move in.
