What can happen if I leave my house at the age of 16?

My life home is pretty bad. I think I would be a lot better living with my co-worker. The only problem is, I do not know if I could get into legal trouble?

Answer #1

don’t just walk if you are on your own out there it’s not fun if you don’t have work so talk to a grown up at the school you go to.the above is good to

Answer #2

Well your underage. So it’s illegal. Unless you are emancipated. So your parents can call the cops and report you as a run away. In which case if they find you they’ll drag you back, and I’m pretty sure you’d get into some sort of legal trouble.

It’d probably be best to talk to an adult about your situation. If your home life is that bad and theres proof of it, take it to court, and they’ll let you live with your co-worker or another gaurdian.
