I'am a 16yr.old girl that lives in an abusive home enviroment & I want to know if I can legally move in with
Answer:
Sixteen years old - and you honestly think that you would get a legal judgment that allows you to leave home to live with a nineteen year old boyfriend?? Such a suggestion very well could have him ARRESTED in many states!
What have you been doing when you should have been going to school?
The answer is NO - you would have to prove your claims - and then you would be sent into foster care - NOT with a nineteen year old young man that is known to be involved with a sixteen year old girl in a romantic way.
prob not...if you whant out of there call the cops.....if your grandparents arnt far you mite live with them tell your 17 [ i think ]
then you go from there
good luck
I doubt you can, but you most certainly shouldn't. Do you have a teacher or principal you can talk to and trust? Go to them and tell them your situation. You need some good advice, legal and moral, but you don't need to move in with your boyfriend. In some states, you could be setting him up to go to prison.
You deserve a loving environment, and I hope you get it.
Your county must have a social services department that can help you or you can talk to a responsible adult. If you are sexually active with a nineteen year old he is guilty of statuatory rape and can go to prison. Three years is a big age difference when you are that young. You need to seek mature and responsible advice and stay out of the living situation because you are way too young to go down that road right now.
Legally...No.
Only if your parents allow. BUT...at any time, without telling you, they can make a phone call and have him arrested.
If the abuse is ON you...call Child Protective Services or the police. They are REQUIRED to help you.
you will have to prove your being abused. and no they will not let you live with your boyfriend.
You really need to talk to someone that you can trust. You have to talk about this to someone who will help you. You must know someone who can help you out. If you move in with your 19 year old boyfriend he could be arrested because you are a minor and he is considered an adult. Your parents could have him arrested for statutory rape or something similar.
i now your black or mexican and live in NYC, am i right uh, uh, uh????
That depends on where you live. Check with local authorities. If you are looking for advice, I would say you are to young to live with a boyfriend. Try moving with one of your girlfriends for a while. Offer to help out, and try to make something like that work. You have your whole life to be a "grown-up". Finish school and stay safe!
I would say not. Reason,,,,you are a minor in the eyes of the law in every state. Your parents are still in charge of you. However, if you can show that you have been abused, you can get child protectives services to take your case before a court and they will decide for you, That is the best solution. If you run away from home, that will not help your cause. Try getting hold of child protective services.
Go to legal-aid, have yourself declared an emancipated minor, and do what the first respondent said- go live with your grandmother. No court is going to allow you to move in with a 19 year-old. They are quite able to add 2+2 and come-up with 4.
abuse is illegal but you can can try to become emnacicapted as an adult. go to www.findlaw.com find the laws for your state. good luck stay safe and contact these

you are bound by the law to do what your parents say until your 18, if you truly want to get out of an abusive environment call the dept of family services or the cops. they will get you out if their is signs of abuse. but i just think that you want to be with your boyfriend. be advised that your parents can get him for statutory rape if they want to.
Probably not without some kind of legal order of the courts. I'd advise against it however sweetie. Maybe you dont want to hear this but Im a mom of 7, 5 of them are adults now and 2 are just little guys still. I have 3 grown daughters and have seen all three of them in terribly heart breaking situations when they have done what you propose. Living with your boyfriend may sound grown up and like a good answer but take it from a former teenage rebel and mother of 7, you are still very very young and I would advise that you find extended family (if there are any decent that is) or perhaps some older female that is over 18 you trust, one who is mature enough to be your legal guardian and actually parent you. I know foster care isnt what you want to hear but there are other programs. Here in minnesota there is something called job corps. You live there (ages 16 to 25) and go to school and work until you are able to be on your own. Im sure other places have similar stuff.
word of advice-DONT try to grow up too fast, it really isnt much fun a lot of the time. Enjoy your young adult hood and get some help for what you have been through so that some day you dont pass those negative things on to your own babies.
God bless and best wishes.
Take a good look at your situation. Get help from an outside source. Your good at computers so I know you know how to search for help for teens in "abusive homes." Let this be your decision not your boyfriend's. Your still a minor you don't want to make things worse by leaving unless you are being physically abused. Get help now. Don't let this be an excuse to move in with your 19 y/o boyfriend. There is a law called statutory rape. Your BF could be arrested. You can divorce your parents but you need $ for an attorney.
Well I think it all depends on where you live. I live in NC and I had to go away with my ex-boyfriend when I was sixteen and my parents couldn't do nothing about it. He was 19 also, and for ALL of these people saying go to the cops or social workers .....I DID THAT and no one paid me any mind at ALL! So I think you should think about it first, because you will regret it for the rest of your life....I DID!.....your to young.... See if you can get your friends parents to help you out before making any decisions like that...PLEASE!!!!!!
BE CAREFUL AND GOOD LUCK!!! IT'S HARD I KNOW....
I think it is diffrent from state to state. the laws are diffrent. But , the best thing is to go to the police, that is if you want to report on them. Because if you just move out, they will probably look for you and then you will be on the run. I am saying this because my abusive mom took me away, and we were on the run form the police because it was illegal since she did not have the right of my costody. but when my dad had me back we live safely. Now she wont even think about getting even close to me. so it is better to put the law on your side. that is not a wise choice to do alone and at this age, becuase boyfriends come and go. What are you going to do if god forbids and you brake up? you will be left all alone. I also do not think that the police can allow you to live with your boyfriend since you are a minor. that is if you want to put the law between yourself and your parents. then you might be located with another family as a foster child or something. I do not what to tell you girl. Your biggest problem is your age. if you just wait and hold on to your sanity for a couple more years then you can creat you own path in life. Just not right now. I do not know if I make sense, but you situation is complicated and I feel yea.
I reasearched and found these sites. I do not know if they are creditable or not, but you might give it a shot

No, because you are still under the legal age, but you can divorce your parents. There's a precedent for that.
Listen instead of moving in and then getting pregnant with a 19 year old that doesn't have or can't keep a job just call children services and explain to them how you feel.
where are you ?
If you are in Australia ... I believe there is no legal reason why you can not do so. You are over the age of consent. You could speak to centrelink about getting an away from home allowance if you are still attending school ....
BUT ALL THAT ASIDE .. and while i do not know you or your boyfriend .. Is it really the right time to embark on such a serious relationship , It's a big step and a rather big committment .. are you afraid that you may be placing yourself into dependency upon him ... anyway .. that isn't really what you asked...just make your moves with consideration .. and be safe and look after yourself.
