I live in Texas. I am graduating at the end of this month a year early. Many sources say my parents can haul me home but many others say that they can't. I know that I could file for emancipation but I'm really not looking to throw arrows and hurt my father's reputation- I just can't deal with the constant berating and drinking and yelling. However, I don't think he would want me to move out, due to control issue. If I have a place to stay, can pay rent, am safe, and have a highschool diploma can he really force me back home?
For the record, I am aware that life in the real world isn't easy. I love my mother and would stay here for her but the good doesn't outweight the bad anymore. I know she would be on my side, it's my dad I'm worried about.
Any input on if I could get into legal trouble or get anyone else into trouble by living with them or anything like that.. anything you know would be great. Thanks!
