That's true, they won't.

But it's also true that her parents CAN force her back, with or without the assistance of law enforcement. She needs to be aware of that. The fact that the police will not force her back does not mean that she is guaranteed of being able to leave at 17.

Agreed. And let's face it, being 16 and pregnant doesn't exactly present the image of a mature, responsible young lady.

Such is life!

The life of the unborn child now has to be considered. What the OP wants and what is best for the baby may not be the same thing. What a mess.

You're not taking in where she lives. Some states will not make you move back in when you are seventeen even though eighteen is the leagle age.

You just judge everyone don't you? She asked a question she did not ask for you to judge her based off of the small things you know about her.

Can you read, honey?

I suggest you take another try with this thread.

You're welcome.

Telling someone that the law doesn't say what they want it to say is not judging them.

Just because the state won't force her home doesn't mean her parents are prohibited from doing so. Telling her that is not judgement - it's telling her the truth. Just as we told you the truth. The fact that you don't like the truth doesn't make it wrong.

I don't think calling somebody you don't know, and only have spoken to through a screen very mature? Yeah, have a seat as well.

Well, looks like it's time for crumpets and tea.

And, apparently, cheese.

:cool:

Called you what, dear? I don't see that anyone called you anything.

And in many state, no, I didn't check Texas, a parent has right to control/take the earnings/income of his minor unemancipated child ....

I am moving out in October, thanks anyways guys. I've gotten help from actual legal advisors.
