My boyfriend age 23 recently left his parents home because he wanted to move out like any normal adult and they are very abusive and controlling. He had to just leave without notice because they did not want to talk to him about getting his own place.They told him that he would not be allowed to leave and they would drive him to work. It has been a week since he left and he wants to get his personal belongings for his new place. His parents told him he needs to pay for his belongings if he wants them. However, the furniture and bed and desk along with his clothing TV and computer and Misc property are all in my boyfriends name and paid in full by him not them. They changed the locks on the house and put locks on his office and his bedroom. They told him they will not let him get his property because they think he needs to pay him for his own property that they have no power over. He does not owe them any money nor do they have anything of his in their name. They are contolling by fear and they don't understand that he is an adult and has the right to his personal property. He tried talking to them about getting it and setting up dates but they still refuse to allow him to collect his belongings. He told them that he will be calling for a police escort to get his stuff but they still refuse to let him get it even in that case. Is there anything we can do if they still refuse to allow him to get his property?
