I have a son who just turned 17. He doesn't want to adhere to the rules of curfew and stays out all night sometimes and comes home whenever he wants. I have to stop it somehow. He told me if I don't like it he will move out that since he is 17 that I can't stop him. I am at my wits end. He is a good kid, but he is stubborn, and right now friends and fun are more important than home and family. I am s single mom, and we have no other issues other than him saying I no longer have control of his actions, that he is free to do what he wants or he will move out and that there is nothing I can do to stop him. I can't keep on living like this. I am not sleeping nights, and I am getting to the point I don't ever see him anymore. How do I stop this. What is the age limit for him to leave home if he so decided to. I thought it was 18 but he says no, when he is 17. Everytime I say anything , he replies, I can just move out if you want me to. I am so tired. He is so arrogant, yet a good kid.
