Re: 17 year old son wants to move out
It would be difficult to stop your son. However, his other parent may then object that he/she should not be paying child support. If your son essential emancipates himself, he may wind up on his own. This of course depends on the actual facts.

: 17 year old son wants to move out
As a practical matter, he can move. Your son may have problems signing any legal documents since he must be 18 years old.
