I hope they put enough thought into it to move her somewhere out of that area.

17 is still a minor. I don’t think you get a free gov’t home until you are 18.

I don’t know the law in other states, but I petitioned to be emancipated at 17, and was, because my parents agreed that I had assumed the responsibilities of an adult.

I did it so I could apply for a small scholarship to cover part of my education-I had to be independent of my parent’s support, and able to sign documents on my own to do that. I lived on my own, but it was in a hunting cabin on the ranch, not govt housing.
