    Default Can a Parent Make a Minor Quit a Job

    My question involves juvenile law in the State of: Nevada
    I'm currently 17 and I live with my mother who has full custody of me. She often threatens that she will quit my job for me whenever I get into trouble. My first question is can she do that even if my dad doesn't agree to it? She has also once in the past not allowed me to go with my dad to visit his side of the family out of state (during a period which he had visitation ofc) on the basis that "his family is a bad influence on me". She also claims that her lawyer had informed my dad that he wasn't allowed to take me to the city in which his family resides. It was a giant issue as my uncle had already bought me plane tickets and we had everything planned out.

    Default Re: Parent Quitting Job and Denying Visitation

    She can stop you from going to work, yes.

    If your father is being denied court-ordered visitation, his option is to take your Mom back to court.

    Honestly? You're 17 - by the time any of this would get in front of a judge you'd be able to leave home, live wherever you like and work wherever you like anyway.

    Did you discuss the trip with your mother Before the tickets were bought ? If not, seems your mother might have a valid point about the family being a bad influence.

    As long as you are still a minor you don't have a job unless your mother says you do.
