Moving out at 18?
Anonymous
On your 18th Birthday you may Leave. I suggest you wait until you graduate, it might still be possible for the family to pay for your college. Prior to that date, you are their "property" regarding legal proceedings. Unless you are emancipated by the Court. And, you admit that you cannot qualify by stating you can live only being dependent on your boyfriend.

"They say mean things to me but they buy me stuff or do things to make me feel better after this." It's called parenting. Sure, you can move out when you're eighteen but you'll find out it's much harder to live on your own. Good luck.

Oh for god sake move out if you want, and stop whining. You can't even make a decision about this without asking a bunch of strangers what we think. Doesn't matter to me either way, but since you had to ask, you're UNSURE about what to do and i don't think you're mature enough to move out, if you can't make an adult decision. you asked

Boyfriends come & go. Today, you're moving in with a BF, just to get away from your family. Sounds good, but what if you find a new BF? Or he dump you for a new GF? That means: you'll have to go to court, because you paid this, or that he paid for that, and you divide properties (AS IF you were married). Don't believe me? Watch Court TV and find out what relationships damaged done to couples (who are pretty much in love). Homeless population keeps growing, because of children wanting to do it on their own. If you have no patience staying on until you're 21, how can you have patience being with someone who is NOT someone you're married to?

Just go, and make a good life for yourself. You are not beholden to your family. Every single person's responsibility is to leave home sooner or later.
