24...though only on a temporary basis.

I think about 12. It depends on how mature the child is and where the party is going to be. It also depends on the parents opinion.

You don't look your age at all!  I'd like to be twenty four, it seems like at that age you're sorted, you have a place to live, a job, and you know what you're doing in life.  I'm eighteen at the mo, (and happy of course! ) yet I feel like I'm too young to be getting up and going, yet too old to be sitting still.

Assault and Battery @ 14 years old\nUnlawful Entry @ 14 years old\nUnderage Consumption @ 14 years old\nViolation of Curfew @ 16 years old\n\n\nI've come a long way since then.  I'm now going on 24 and I make more money than my parents do, and I'm working on Associates in Applied Science for Veterinary Technical Science...\n\nAnd they said I'd never amount to anything!!!

As others have said, you must be 18 to get married without parental consent. You can leave home at 17 if your parents allow it, but if they do not, there is little you can do to keep them from making you come back home. If they do try to do that, you can petition in court by arguing that you are in fact emancipated because you care for yourself, but really, it's simpler to wait until you're 18; it's really not that long to wait.

I started kindergaden at 4, and walked home a few times alone. I was in first grade twice, and at age 6 it was a long walk home. about 12 blocks in a suburb of Chicago. By 2nd grade, 3 blocks to school was easy and normal. But there were bullies that stole my lunch. And all kinds of things can happen in 3 blocks. I wouldn't trade those memories of walking to school for anything. I became a safety patrol in 5th grade, safety captain in 6th grade. And on bicycles, me and my friends ruled the streets! The video game was at the boweling ally, a pingpong then the lunar lander, both black & white. Age 7 is the earliest I would recomend, but when both parents work and have an infant to care for at home, walking just has to be for a young school kid. My sister was a year younger, she walked too. But not with me most of the time. We did get rides to school alot, but always had to walk home.

A 17 year old could move away from home if they have their parents’ or legal guardian’s permission, like to go to college. Or, a 17 year old could become legally emancipated and enjoy the same freedoms as any other person who is at least 18 years old. In some states, emancipation is automatic if the 17 year old gets married. It could also be ordered by the courts.

Most Americans go away to college at age 18, and get the first taste of living on their own then. I moved out at age 26, I was the last of my friends to move out, I am 28 now, and my friends are still saying"It's about time Debra grew up!!" It was rough living at home after being away at college, my parents were very strict about curfews, etc, and we have different housekeeping habits now. When I was 26 and still with my parents, I acyually had a few people say I was a loser for living home after age 25. That just the custom here, if you are 25 and living home you are a "loser" if you are 30 and living home and your parents are healthy forget it, people will think something is wrong with you, unless you are living with your parents to care for them. My co-worker is in her early 30's and she is actually treated with less respect at work and not taken seriously because she lives with her parents. She is a great worker, but is not promoted because"there must be something wrong with her, living at home at her age". I live near my parents and help them, but I cannot imagine living back with them.

Suprisingly, California does not has a specific minimum age for a child to be left unattended at home.  I know someone who regularly leaves an 8-year-old girl at home alone.  Child Protective Services was not concerned with this situation at all.\n\nI personally think the minimum age should be 13.

No.  I wasn't allowed to stay home alone overnight until I was 17.  At ALMOST 15, she could be charged with negligence if anything happened to you.

I'm 21 and finally getting tired of living at home. So I'm moving out. I'm going to let them know that I'm pursuing my life in the town I go to college; they would probably eventually give me the boot at around 25, I think, if I didn't.

How the hell old are you?

The age of majority is 18. That's when you're considered a legal adult and you can make all your own decisions. In some cases a minor can be legally emancipated. You would want to contact a family lawyer in your local area to ask about this. Otherwise you can't leave home without parental permission until you are 18-years-old.
