    Does my dad have the right to kick me out of the house?
    I am sixteen years old. I misbehaved a lot, and I got kicked out of the house. My dad sent me to go live with my mom. I think they both have custody? I'm not sure. My dad has the legal custody thing but its made so that my mom can also visit me and stuff. But my dads the rightful "owner" of me? I don't know. Anyway, I want to come home. I want to graduate in the state I was born, and now I am a million miles away. This is so unfair. Does he have the right to kick me out like this and not let me come home? WHAT CAN I DO! I miss my friends, I miss my dog, I miss my home.

    Hello.

    Im sure your Dad would Love to have you home with him, that is if you would behave like you know you should. Making you live with your Mom was I'm sure very hard for him to do.

    The big question is why should he let you back home around your friends that helped you misbehave. When you can answer that like an adult then you can talk to him about coming home. As much as he wants you home he wants you safe even more so you have to look at from his eyes also.

    It's up to you now so if you want a chance at coming home you have to prove to him that he can trust you.

    Good Luck

    I think you should wait a little in your new house so you can adapt to thechange for future reference, but also mabey there you can learn to have more manners. You should also still keep in touch with your dad to let him know you still love him and after a month or mabey even before you can ask him nicely if you can move back with him and be very calm about the situation. Make him know you care and that you changed.

    It's not like he kicked you out on the streets, he kicked you to your mom's house. And yes he can do that. I don't know how misbehaved you were but you might be lucky he kicked you to your mother and not a girls home. If you want to continue misbehaving at your mothers house, you might very well end up in a girls home or worse yet on the streets. I would suggest you think about the things you did that made your dad send you to your mother and work on changing that behaver. If you can prove to your dad that you have changed he may let you come back home. It may take many months for you to earn his trust, but it's something you will do if you really want to go home. Beware though, if he sent you away once he can send you away again. The more you've played this card the less likely he will let you come back, so it better be the real thing and not just a game to get back home.
