A: You are 17 yours old and you and your mother had a fight. As a result, you have decided to move in with your 18-year-old boyfriend. I presume that your mother wants you to come home and you do not want to do so. I'm also guessing that you are still in high school, so the next question is what is your plan for finishing up your schooling or are you planning to drop out of high school / take your GED? For whatever its worth, I would put together a plan for the completion of your schooling, trade school, etc, and make sure that your boyfriend is on board as well. Then you will be in a better position to have a constructive talk with your mother about what you are doing and your future.
