Is it legal for a 17-year-old girl to move out without parental permission and move in with her 21-year-old boyfriend in Texas I really did not mean to post this. It was in error. Please disregard.?

No, the legal age of majority is 18. Well, I've read on the internet that in Texas, the police will not force you to return home if you're 17. Take that information with a grain of salt because I've seen a whole lot of information on the internet that I know for a fact isn't true. The fact is that Texas law defines a minor as anyone under the age of 18 and guarantees the guardian of such minor the right to have physical possession of the child. Therefore, your parents can report you as a runaway. Your boyfriend could also get into trouble. He could potentially be facing charges such as: harboring a runaway child/contributing to the delinquency of a minor/interference with the rights of a guardian/enticing a child/etc. Do you really want to take a chance on your boyfriend facing possible jail time?
