Q: So I was kicked out and I’m 17 can I sign myself out and get money from it like my uncle told me he did
A:
In Kentucky, the legal age of majority is 18, which means that individuals under 18 are considered minors. Minors typically cannot sign themselves out of legal guardianship or make decisions about their living arrangements without parental or guardian consent.
If you are facing a difficult family situation or have been kicked out of your home, it is crucial to seek help from a trusted adult, relative, or a legal professional. You may consider reaching out to your local child protective services or a social worker who can provide guidance and support in your specific situation.
