Yes, unless you are emancipated. The answer according to the state attorney generals office is no. If the person ran away after turning 17 then that person can not be picked up and returned to the parent, especially if the parent knows where the child is at. If the 17 year old has a job and files a tax return then in the eyes of the state that 17 year old has established themselves as an "adult"
