Ok, i am about to be 17 next month and i hate it where i am living. My older sister has already talked to a attorney and they said i can leave and go live her because she is blood. My only problem is school. My question is when i turn 17 can i just drop out of school without my parents permission, move-in with my sister and do home schooling online?Under the Texas laws, when you are 17 are you allowed to drop out of school without a parent permission?
yes, you can drop out without your parents permission and i think it is AWESOME that you are still gonna be in school!! hope livin with your sister works out for you!! keep on ROCKIN!!! =DUnder the Texas laws, when you are 17 are you allowed to drop out of school without a parent permission?
I believe you have to be 18 to drop out of school in the State of Texas. And you definitely can't leave home until you are 18.
So I have a good plan for you. Excel your last year of school, get into a good college, move away from home and make something of your self...Always a much better plan then dropping out.
No - you may not drop out of school at 17. You are still a minor and your parents are still responsible for you. If you move in with your sister then you be come her responsibility and she must make you go to school.
You parents or sister will be held legally responsible if you do not attend class. This includes fines and possible jail time.
A way to get around this is to have your parents withdraw you and say they are going to home school you. There aren't any real checks on homeschooling.
If you aren't going to go to school - you should at least get your GED - you can't do anything really without it.
Nope. You're still a minor and are legally required to attend school.
I also point out to you that if you couldn't research this yourself, you're not ready to follow an online education.
Suck it up, finish out your time at home, graduate and bail.
