emancipation from parents

[gilmore]

i am a seventeen yr. old female living in beaufort,south carolina and i have to get away from my parents. we constantly argue and it's affecting my whole family. i need to know if i can simply leave my home at my age or not.

Of course you can leave . . .

But that isn't saying they can't bring you back again.

Other than saying you argue, you didn't state any unbearable problems. Why not try to get along, follow rules, respect your parents, and wait until you're 18 to leave. It's not a very long time to wait, and you might be surprised that your attitude can make a difference in your whole family's.

Good luck.
