I have a ?. I live in Illinois. And I am going to be 17 in a couple of months… I was wanting to know if I could move out at the age of 17 and live with my boyfriend he is 8 years older than me we have been dating for 6 months… I just dont want to get anyone in trouble or anything or be reported as a runaway.. So can I move in with my boyfriend at the age of 17 without getting into trouble of anykind? Please help me with this. Im so confused!

Answer #1

Nope - in Illinois the legal age is 18-years-old unless you have some sort of court order or are emancipated. You two dating is illegal, let alone you moving in with him at 17.
