Would you be allowed to move out at 15 if your parents are abusive and you have a safe place to stay?

you have a couple of courses of action, first, you could apply for emancipation and prove you had the means to support yourself, which at 15 could be difficult, bc most places won't hire a 15 year old. you could also report to the department of human services, or whatever agency covers children, and report the abuse. If your safe place to stay is a relative, they could probaly have temporary custody granted until abuse could be proven, and then permanent guardianship could be established.

Answerin some cases you can if you can prove it, yet 15 is a hard age to try to move out bc your a minor. I tried and I'm still trying. first, you need to tell an adult that you trust,then you need to talk to a social worker, next, you apply for emancipation, and that's not the easiest thing to do but you would have to have some type of proof (shown scars,welt's,etc., to a friend)last arrange a safe place to stay.Hopefully a RELATIVE you can trust bc this stuff can really get hard and frustrating and also because they background check everything on that person. Besides that you should be good to go. AnswerPrevious poster stated: "...arrange a safe place to stay.Hopefully a RELATIVE...because they background check everything on that person"

That does not sound like emancipation, but rather a change of guardianship. Which, for the original poster is probably a more likely option than emancipation would be. There are only a very few states that will allow someone under the age of 16 to petition the court for emancipation. I suggest you call social services (anonymously if you want) and ask them if you're being abused (and you better be able to back up the charge) and you have a place to stay, what process do you need to follow.
