At the age of 17 years old, most states in the USA do not require parental consent if the child moves out of the parental home. I tried to help my sister appeal to the courts in Florida when my niece moved out of her home at the age of 17. The courts as well as every attorney we asked said that Oregon and Utah were the only states which would actually get involved in the matter due to the child not yet reaching the age of 18. If the child is a girl and moving in with a man over the age of 18, you may have a case (but it's hard to prove - believe me, we tried it). My niece actually kept all her belongings at a girlfriend's home but basically lives at her21 year old boyfriend/parents home.
