legal age ( help!) my mother said that when my cousin left her moms house she was 16 years old and her mom tried to call the cops and they couldn't force her to come home they could suggest it but they couldnt legally make her leave because she moved it with a friend and she had a roof over her head, food to eat and she wasnt in any danger.. now i heard the legal age to do this was 18 .. this happened in CT when my cousin was 16 she is now 23 my question is.. did they change the age? or is it still 16 ( she did not emancipate herself so thats not it )

no it hasnt changed its perfectly legal at the age of 16 to run away move out or just disappear litterally the law cannot force you to go back home if you are safe where you are and if you are able to provide for yourself by some means ]
I'm not sure if you mean Connecticut, but here's a link which should help:
