My 17 Year Old Son Wants to Move in with 19 Year Old Girlfriend

thank you all for the advice. I do live in lucas county we spoke with the probation dept. today they were very helpful its a shame that the courts did not mention any options the six times we had been there. once again thanks to everyone who replied.

If I could I would take your boy to my work for a day. One day behind bars in a prison. I think would straighten any teenager up.

I do not know the law in your state specifically, but the following generally would apply.

1. The girlfriend would be committing a criminal offense having sex with your son who is under 18.

2. Technically you are responsible for him.

3. Here is a kicker. If he, as a minor, gets her pregnant, you could be held responsible for child support, especially if you permit the affair.

I would suggest looking into going to court with your son and have him granted a legal emancipation, so you are not legally responsible for him.
If he wants to be an adult, make him an adult now.

This might or might not make him think twice.
