    What can you do with your teenager if they are causing problems in the household, at school, or want to move out? As a parent, you have control over your children until they are 18 years of age. At the age of 18, they become an adult. However, prior to the age of 18, a child can be or may be emancipated, or declared an adult in the eyes of the state of Texas. To declare emancipation, the child must have a full time job, be capable of supporting his/herself, and prove to a court that he/she does not need parental supervision any longer. This is a difficult burden for a teenager to overcome.
    So the question is, what can parents do with kids they can no longer control? But the answer is, it’s a grey area. Speak with a qualified attorney to find out your options.

      everything's illusion, a subjective social construct that can be seen to be anything from a to z. Some say adult is 25. Some say 18. Some say 35, whatever. What is a child? What is an adult? What is immaturity? What is intelligence? Language and psychiatry is no less a subjective social construct than anything else. I'm at the mind that you're not even an adult until you move out 'cause wanting to dependently suck off your patents teets, is pretty childish. Self-reliance however, shows maturity.

    Legally 18, but you don’t get full privileges until 21.

      Or 25 even. That's when the brain is fully developed.

    18 is the legal age, 21 to drink and buy tobacco in most US states, and 25 for full adult development, brain and all.
