About Being 16
Okay, so i heard my dad talking about once i turn 16 i can move out of the house whenever i wanted, but my parents would still have to look out for me. There was something else he said.. but he was whispering it to his girlfriend and when i asked him about it he was like.. you would be a big girl.. so he was obviously hiding something. My parents have been going to court lately over child custody and stuff and i wondered if anyone knew anything about turning 16 and what are some of the legal things that i can do. I turn 16 in july by the way. Anything can help, someone who would know politics would be helpful too. Thanks

i think wat your dad was taling about (or hinting) is that you can decide whether or not you want to live with him or your mom. once you turn 16 you can decide where you want to live (mom/dad) im not sure what he was whispering but he probably wants you to come live with him or if you already do that you can go live with your mom anytime you wantand he'll still take care of you (through child support and stuff like that) and he'll always be there for you.
hope i helped :)

He's probably just hiding the fact that he doesn't want to lose you over custody.

Well, you can't vote, but you can drive & work. You can legally drop out of school and no one can say anything to you about it. I doubt you can move out of your house since most places won't let you rent until you're of age, which would be 18.

I really wish I could tell you more, but in order to get your question answered, I do have this advice for you. Could you please add information about where you live? Then you could also do a search on the internet on the rights of minors in your state, etc.
