Why do you need to move? Check with your landlord and make sure they're okay with this. Are you planning on coming back or will your daughter simply sign a new lease in her name only?
Can I legally move out on my child if she will be 18 in 2 months
No I'm not coming back and there's no lease
Don't you like her ? Is that why you want to move out on her. What do you mean exactly ? I can't see where this has anything to do with 'mother's rights'.
I don't really thin you should leave her since she's under 18, you shouldn't have made her free though it might not be your fault
I think as long as your daughter is okay with you leaving, there shouldn't be an issue with abandonment. I would still talk to your landlord, as I'm not sure how comfortable they are with a minor living by herself.
Is your daughter emancipated and capable of taking care of herself and your grandchild for the next 2 months?
Child abandonment is typically when you leave the child unattended that exposes him/her to risk, danger and/or the child is left without provision for support (food, clothing, shelter, etc) or without means of identification. There's often a no communication provision as well.
What you're talking about is not "child abandonment." I wouldn't worry about it.
Is a issue legally as to where you are.
In many states merely having a child may emancipate her, in a few, like GA, they can actually move out at 17 ( although you are stilll liable for them)
It is the leaving alone is she in school, who is going to help with the baby and so much more.

Will your daughter be 18 around the time you move? If so, leave them all behind. You are being so used. She doesn't seem to respect you too much. Let everybody get their own lives.
And yes, you can go ahead as planned, pay the rent for two months till she is 18 then leave her butt behind! It won't be abandonment when she is 18.
Whose name is on the lease or who has the rental agreement with the landlord? You can't just pay for two months and walk away. You will continue to be responsible for the rent pretty much until the end of time unless the landlord agrees to rent the apartment to your daughter. And if you pay two months and she stays three? You owe the landlord for the last month, also.
And what if she trashes the apartment? You're responsible.
Check the laws in your State to determine what the legal age is before you do anything.
