    Default Re: Running Away Shortly Before Your 18th Birthday

    My question involves juvenile law in the State of: Florida. Ok, so my mom wants to move to NC, but i dont want to go. She said she might move after my birthday, which i will be 18 by then. But problem is, even when i turn 18 she wont let me leave the house. Can she do that legally?
    No, she cannot stop you from leaving her house once you are 18.

    Also, If she can't move after i turn 18, can i move into my sisters house? She's over 18 and she has her own place and can take good care of me
    It doesn't matter if your sister can take care of you or not, once you turn 18, you can live wherever you like.

    But i dont know if i can move out before my birthday or not and i dont want to get in trouble with the law. Please help me! Ive been telling her that as soon as im 18, im moving out, but she won't listen. And i really don't want to move up to NC. It seemed like the perfect time to ask this. Any help is appreciated. Ive heard police wont make you go back if Im close to being 18, but id rather ask than go ahead and get in trouble. Thank you so much.
    Someone else said it was two weeks until your 18th birthday but please clarify just how long it will be until you turn 18.
