Re: Moving out age
The way you phrased the question is interesting.
1. You can move out without breaking any law at any time.
2. Up until the age of 18, your father can require you to move back.
It's not about his advance consent, just about whether he will require you to move back after you leave.
I apologize for such a 'legal-style' answer, but I am a lawyer and you were looking for a lawyer's response. I think I supplied the information you were looking for anyway.
