What is the name of your state? Missouri
I am sixteen as of right now and I will be turning 17 in less than a month. I have an alcoholic mother and a father that is verbally and sometimes physically abusive. Since my mother got fired from her job about five or six years ago I've been basically taking care of myself. Right now I work two jobs and I pay for 95% of the things I have. My mother and I are currently living with my grandmother who is also an alcoholic and makes it very clear she does'nt want us there. Just recently I left home and I told my mother and she said it was fine but when my father found out she made it seem as if I had just ran away and they filed me as a missing person. About a week after I came home my mother came up missing and my grandmother told me to leave her home, so I did. When we found my mother my grandmother told her that I ran off with a grown man (not true). My parents then came to my job and made me leave and I had to find somewhere else to work. My first question is can they come to my job and get me? Secondly if I leave next month what are my legal rights? Can the person I'm staying with get in any type of trouble (i.e harboring a minor)? Also can they come to my school and get me when school starts?
