Q: My girlfriend wants to move out on the day she turns 18
My girlfriend would like to move out of her house on the day she turns 18 and into mine. She doesn't want to say at her moms anymore because she doesn't feel welcome but her mom says she can't move out even when she turns 18 because she will still be in school. Can her mom legally stop her from moving out when she turns 18. If so please let me know. Reminder she is not trying to move out until she turns 18.
A: She can do what she wants when she turns 18. If there is a support order from a divorce, parent has duty of support until finishing HS or turning 19.
