Can a 17-year-old gain legal emancipation in Mississippi to live with us?
My daughter's ex-boyfriend who is turning 17 in September has stayed very close to our family since they decided to be friends. He is having an extremely difficult time living at home with his mother and step father. It is what most would call dysfunctional. The boy would like to move in with us and is currently holding down a full time job. While it concerns me to get involved, I would like to help and would be willing to have him as a responsibility but his mother will not hear of it and is now isolating him from my daughter and our family. Is it possible for this boy to gain legal emancipation from his parents and just come live with us until he has finished college? Would a court support him and grant this request in Mississippi?
What are the legal rights of a 17-year-old locked out of home?
We know a 17 year old boy who has been locked out of his home by his mother. We have known this boy for about two years. He is a pleasant, polite person. His mother and father are separated. The mother has serious emotional issues and the father has serious anger issues. He has hit his son on several occasions. The mother does not want her son to live with her and the son does not want to live with his father for obvious reasons. The boy is living with another family right now. It's been about six weeks. He did call his mother recently to apologize and ask if he could return home and she refused. Is this illegal? What are the rights of the child and of the family with whom he is living?
