TEEN QUESTION/PROBLEM:
I am 17 and i want to move out of my home with my mum and dad, i want to move to my girfriends house with her, her mum and her brother. her mum has allowed this but my mum and dad wont allow me to do so. is there anything they can do if i just chose not to go back home?

TEEN LINE WROTE:
hey, it must be scary to feel like you don't want to go back home with your parents, but exactly what's going on at home that makes you feel this way ? Do you have at least a close relatives house that you can stay at until you figure things out with your parents? And just remember that even if your parents don't want you to move to your friends house, if you feel like you have nowhere to go its better to go there than to wander around not knowing where you should go. Is there a school councelor that you can talk to about this? Or even a close friend or relative? Just any adult that you can talk to about this would b e great.

I would like to get more information on why you feel like you don't want to live with your parents so please call us at (310) 855-HOPE and you can call us collect. We are open everyday from 6-pm-10pm PST everyday.

But I did notice that you are from Great Britain so you can't call you can also go to our website which is www.teenlineonline.org and have a live chat with one of us, and that is also open from 6pm-10pm PST everyday. Please contact us because we really want to help, thank you!
