If I am 17 and pregnant am I able to move out? My parents fight all the time. My dad treats me like I'm 5 years old. I am not allowed to stay out passed 6:30. My dad yells at me constently. I am so tired of getting treated like I am a little kid. I am bout to have one of my own you know what I mean? My fiance wants me to move in with him when i turn 17, but I'm not sure if I can. My dad is just getting to be out of control same as my step mom. They fight constently and my dad even hits her. I just dont want to be in that house in more.
