My boyfriend's mother is completely out of control. From the time he was a child until he was around 13, she beat the crap out of him... now she has another daughter by a different man... she can't punish her daughter because her husband gets mad... so she punishes my boyfriend double... she blames him for everything that his real dad did to her... she calls him worthless and stupid constantly.. tells him he'll never amount to anything... she lets us talk once a week for an hour online... she won't ever let us talk on the phone and because we live 3 hours from each other we see each other MAYBE once a month if we're lucky and she's not in a bad mood. Is there any way that I can have him taken from her? He hates her... so much that he's leaving on his 18th birthday... I just need to know if there's any way that he can be taken from her and stay with a relative? Thank you. Any help is MUCH appreciated... he doesn't deserve what he gets everyday.

Someone said that it doesn't concern me, but it does. He is 17 and will be 18 in 6 months... I have dated him for 10 months and he's moving down here whenever he is free from the horrible life he has now. This IS my business because I care about him and I love him. If you care about someone, you have to do whatever you can to help them when they are in a bad position or when they have a problem. And I'm going to do whatever I have to to make sure that he has the life, love, support and care he deserves.

Its all over now. He mentioned moving out on his 18th birthday and she flipped. She took away everything... every single way of contacting me... we won't be able to talk for months. I wish I could just go get him and run off... but my dads a police officer and said that in our state.. if you take him from home against his mother's wishes.. its called custodial interference and its a crime... even if he is 17... theres nothing I can do... his mom is a psycho... and now I can't do anything but wait for months until I can finally talk to him again... its not like we got to talk that much anywayz... and now it'll be even less... I can't wait until his birthday...

MY BEST ADVICE IS TO HAVE YOUR MOM OR ANOTHER ADULT CALL CHILD PROTECTIVE SERVICES & FOLLOW UP WITH IT...I WAS IN A SIMILAR SITUATION...I LEFT AT 12:03 AM ON MY 18TH BIRTHDAY...MY RIDE WAS 3 MINUTES LATE...GETTING EMANCIPATED IS NOT THAT SIMPLE...I TRIED...DEPENDING ON THE STATE YOU HAVE TO HAVE A SIGNIFICATE AMOUNT OF MONEY IN THE BANK(NV=2500) & HAVE TO MEET A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF OTHER STIPULATIONS...SO HAVE SOMEONE CALL CPS TODAY...THE STATE HAS PROGRAMS FOR TEENAGERS TO GET THERE LIVES TOGHETHER...GOOD LUCK...ANY MORE QUESTIONS... IM ME !!!

Until a child turns 18 you are not allowed to abuse this child in such a way. It is against the law in any state in the USA. If he is 17 he could probably go live with a relative of his own free will. He wouldn't need the permission of his mother.I would check with the police dept. in your state to find out. All depends on how old he is now.

Maybe he can get emancipated.
My advice is to speak to a lawyer and the best, most inexpensive way to do this is through Pre-Paid Legal Services. For more information visit the website below, and feel free to contact me through that site if you have further questions on how this service may be able to help you. I encourage you to find out what your rights and options are in this situation.
I wish you the best of luck.

If you know a teacher, pastor, or another adult you trust, talk to them. If he is old enough, he could emancipate himself. If he's not, child services might be able to help.

when he is 18 he can leave. If he is 17 I think he can leave now if he wants to, he just can't expect any support.

YOU cannot do anything. You're not family and this really doesn't concern you.
You didn't say how old he is. If he's old enough he could possibly emancipate himself.
