It is NOT against the law but there are education requirments that the child must meet later, many kids do not begin school until 6 so this is not terribly unusual but perhaps the child is going to be home educated.

In Alabama and Florida the law says a child cannot stay alone until the age of 12.  A child cannot be alone with a younger child until the age of 14.  I would assume Georgia law is very similar.

it depends on how mature the child is. of course there are laws that have required age limits on things like that.

I do not know about California but across the country states are changing the laws but right now it does range from 16-18 years old depending on where you live. It also depends on factors like taking driver's ed.\n\nIndiana it is 16 w/ driver's ed but there are limits on when you can drive for the first three months and you cannot drive with anyone under 21 in the car but you can drive by yourself.\n\nA lot of states limit when and who you can drive with after you get your license for a period of time.

It's a british thing that occurs after 16 as an alternative to college. After completing your GCSE's at 16 you can either go to college for two years to get AS and A2 level qualifacations before going to university, or take the same qualifacations at a grammar school that has a sixth form. It's an extra two years attached to the grammar school for the purpose of A levels. It lasts until your 2nd year, typically 18 if you didn't have to complete a year upon which time you can go on to university. They are generally considered slightly better than colleges as you are in a school environment that encourages and supports your work more than college, although it doesn't get you prepared for University where the motivation is more your own deal.

From my experiences kids that have attended christain schools of any denomination tend to revolt at about 16 or 17 years old. I would bet that drug use and other frowned upon activities are higher in these kids than in those at public schools.

A peron of any age can go to college, as long as you have graduated high school or gotten a GED. This means you can be as old as You'd like or as young, assuming you meet these requirements. It is generally accepted that college is for people 18 and older as that is the estimated age of high chool graduation. Though there are some schools where if you are "gifted" they will accept you before you finish high school. I can't think of the name off hand, but I few years ago I was invited to apply to one. Hope that answers the question.

If you had to take a test they wouldn't be rights now would they? If they would put education back in the schools a normal person would have some sense by the time they were eighteen.

I don't know of any state with laws that allow drop-outs until the age of 16.  Many states, even then, demand that parents have to sign the documents, too.  In the state of Indiana, a youth under the age of 16 cannot 'move in' with anyone else unless legally emancipated!  And, from the spelling of your question, it seems you would be doing yourself a favor to stay with a family where you CAN continue to go to school.  There are no employers out there where you can make any kind of basic salary who will hire someone without proof of schooling.

The mandatory school system goes from grades 1-9. After that, there is still high school until 12th grade + university.
