    Speak Up! - View Question #17588


    printer friendly version

    Question: I am 16 years old and i live in pinetop, arizona. My question is, i want to move out of my mothers house because her and i cannot seem to get along anymore, however arizona does not accept the emancipation law, so basically my question to you would be, is there a way that i can move out of my house even though i am a minor?

    Answer: No, you must stay with your mother until you are eighteen, unless you have her approval to move in with another adult. Nevertheless, she will still be legally responsible for your welfare until you reach 18.  You may want to consider family counseling if you think it would help ease tension in the home.

    you have the same problem with me. But i am living with my aunt and we dont like each other. I also want to move out and in canada, if you are 16, you can live by yourself. So, now i feel relieved a bit. I decide I will live on my own. Freedom forever!!!!
