HELP?????? this is serious?
what is the age to leave home in mississippi now be honest with me to? and Can I go out with any one of any age and have sex? and Why is it that when you drink at 18 they call you a minor or do they call you underage instead of a minor? and Im also not a minor right at 18 in mississippi?
Answer:
--Legal Age to move out: 18yrs old without emancipation.
--Can you go out with anyone of any age and have sex with them: No, they must be 18 yrs of age and older to have sex.
--Drinking at 18yrs old is called: Underage drinking. Must be 21yrs old to do that. In some states 18yr olds can be in bars, but no drinking.
--Any child who is 17yrs and younger is referred to as a 'Minor'. Age 18yrs + is referred to as adults. So no, you are not a minor at age 18.

Sounds like you are heading down the wrong path in life.
You make me feel retarded. I have no idea what youre trying to ask. Too many questions.
at 18 your a legal adult in any state, you can do what you want and go where you want to go.
this is serious?
18 to leave the home (i would leave at something like 20 or 21 somewhere around there because I would need to figure some things out), when i am married to have sex, and 21 to drink (that is the drinking age you know)
you can come to the UK and you are an adult at 18.
we know how to treat our kids
at 16 you can leave home and get a job whilst you still know everything
18 to leave home 21 to drink
you need to be 21 to drink, not 18. and you can have sex at the age of 18 with someone that's 18 or older...
You are under the legal drinking age 21. So if caught they call it under age drinking.
Do you have a job? Can you afford rent, bills, electricity, running water?
Can you do the shopping? Ironing? Washing?
Can you cook?
etc. etc...
I think that everywhere you are an adult at 18.I could be wrong, but that is my impression. You may not be able to drink, but you can leave your parents home and there is nothing they can do about it.
If you're 18, you can go where ever you want! Careful though, they may not want you back once you leave!!
18
some states it is illegal for people under 18 to consent to any sexual contact
you can be called whatever the cop wants minor or underage means the same thing
when you are 18 you are no longer a minor in any state.
like that drink -sex be my hoochie mama
Sounds to me like you want to act and do stupid things and your 18. Your parents however are restricting your stupidness.
Go this second hug them, thank them, and listen to them.
The age varies from state to state. Many states place the age at 18. As far as the sex goes, if you are under the age of consent you risk getting the men with whom you have sex prosecuted for statutory rape.
My advice - finish school and abstain until you are finished rebelling.
Federal Law requires you to be 21 to buy and drink alcoholic beverages, so as far as Alcohol is concerned you would be a "minor" or "under the age" to partake in same. This is because the Federal Govt knows that drinking alcohol at a young age can cause irreversible brain damage, to play it safe they decided on the age of 21 since most human brains are through developing by then.
dont worry, at 18 u can do what u want!!!!
Age for leaving home: not too sure. guess 18+ should be ok.
Age for having sex: 18+ (for both you and the partner! otherwise at least one of you will be having underage sex which is a big issue)
Age for drinking: 21+
adulthood isn't given to "kids" all at once. It's something society eases you into. You can start driving at 16, move out, smoke and look at porn when you are 18, and drink when you are 21. I think it's so that the "kid" is given a little at a time instead of all at once. Society probally don't want 18 year olds drinking for a few reasons. For one, alot of 18 year olds are still in high school. So drinking would interfere with their performance in school and they could easily give it to younger students at their school which would not be good. Also, so you can get a couple years of college under your belt before you turn into an alcoholic. Also got to consider that some schools are kendergarden through 12th grade. Would you want your kendergardener going to school with 12th grade drunk? Just be thankful that the laws are the way they are other wise more kids would be getting hurt. I'd like to advice you to not drink. Jesus loves you. Your body is your temple. God bless.
Age 16 is the earliest that you could be emancipated from your parents, but you have to be able to support yourself and agree to finish school before any judge will even half-heartedly consider your petition for emancipation. To be emancipated as a teenager usually requires extreme circumstances. 16 is typically the age of consent in the majority of states, but may not be in Mississippi. In any case, you cannot have sex with anyone more than 4 years older than you or with anyone who is in a position of authority over you, such as a teacher, until you are both 18 and out of high school. Sex with anyone who meets those criteria is considered statutory rape. At 18, you are no longer a minor as long as you are out of high school. While you can buy cigarettes after your 18th birthday, the legal age to buy and/or consume alcohol in the USA is age 21. So while you may not be a minor after you graduate from high school, you would be underage if you were charged with alcohol consumption personally. Anyone providing you with alcohol would be contributing to the delinquincy of a minor, since you are not old enough to buy or consume alcohol.
