Q: How can Ohio 17yr old juvenile get emancipated or married without parents consent
She wants to know how she can get emancipated or can she get married without a parents consent being only 17 yrs old? She stays with my 19 yr old son all day AMD goes home just at night and parents are ok with it but will not let her move in with us. They keep making her life hell just cuz they can cuz she's underage but won't let her leave so they can keep pretending to be a perfect Christian family so they don't hurt their repureputation. Her and my son have been dating for several years already. They treat her like crap all the time. Please tell me what we can do to help her out cps hasn't done nothing to help
A:
Ohio does not permit it. They are her parents, and they make the decisions if CPS won't get involved. See this link for more information:
