What would happen if you two Broke up? You probly wouldnt be able to go back with your parents. Think about it are you ready to move out at such a yound age? I hope i helped good luck.

Listen to them, they know what they're talking about sometimes. That said, you'll legally be an adult at age 18, so I'm pretty sure that's the age. Well, unless you get married, but PLEASE don't do that, that would be an even worse idea. I know that you love your boyfriend a lot and your parents are probably giving you a really hard time, but, trust me, moving out of your house is a huge step in the wrong direction. Sometimes it's the right thing to do, but it will cause so many problems for you in the future and a huge rift in your family that will never fully heal. Talking from personal experience, moving out against your parents wishes takes a huge toll on you financially, emotionally, and it will make your relationship with your boyfriend suffer too. Try to work with your parents and get things straightened out before taking such a drastic step when you turn 18. I'm not saying this to be mean or because I want you to suffer, I'm saying this because I've been through it and right now, my relationship with my entire family, not just my parents, is terrible. Those people were my life for so many years and it really sucks to not be able to see them or talk to them without them trying to get me to fix things that I can't fix. The damage has been done, the bridges have been burned, and even though I'm happy and I feel I did the right thing, I wish I didn't have to. You have two years to try to get things worked out and I really hope that for yours and your family's sakes that they do. Good luck.

Why would you want to move in with your boyfriend at 16 anyway? That seems pointless to me.
