And what if they leave anyway before they turn 18?
Mom and dad can report her as a runaway and they can go get her and bring her home. It might also be possible that her boyfriend and his family could get in trouble for harboring a runaway. It is also possible that the parents may simply let her leave with the clothes on her back and be done with it. Let her find out the hard way that life can be a bear.

And, does anyone REALLY think that the parents have suddenly decided that they "hate" their daughter?
