Minors

What is the age in Georgia to be considered the Age of Majority?

I have a 17 year old son who has convinced a psychologist that he is being mentally abused. Due to his telling the police that he was considering suicide the police told us that they have to have him go to the hospital for a psychological evaluation. All this was done without our permission. The psychologist has not even asked our side of the issue and now our son refuses to come home. He says the psychologist says its not safe there and you do not have to live there. I allowed him to stay at a friends home on Monday May 21. It is now Friday and he says he is not coming back. What options do I have? Our son simply wants to do what he wants to do and is a master manipulator. My wife is a basket case over this. I do not have the financial means to fight this in court and do not know what to do.

I gross 90000 a year but I also work a lot of overtime. My question is can child support be based on overtime along with my primary income? Also I get bonuses included in my primary income, can child support be based on un-guaranteed bonuses.

What is the state/federal law concerning siblings of the opposite sex sharing a bedroom? Is there an age limit when they need their own room?

I have 2 questions: 1. What does Texas law say when a brother and sister have to have their own bedrooms and not sleeping in the same room? 2. What does Texas law say what is the appropriate age a minor may babysit other children?
