    I'm 15 do I leegally have to live with my parents?
    I don't want to leave my parents but they're moving to a foreign country and I don't want to go I was wondering if I coould go and live with other family members I'm 15 by the way, or could I willingly go into care or something? Is that possible? If they gave me permission to go into care could I? I mean I'm not treated badly or anything ijust don't want to live in a foreign country is that reason enough to be acceted to go and live in a care home? please help you cann! Xx

    Dear young person,

    That's a great opportunity for someone who is in your age to discover a new culture as well as a new language.

    My suggestion would be to go with your family and discover new things.. you can always come back at 18 if you really want to come back...

    Remember, when you are young, it's always easier to learn a new language, a culture etc...

    No of course not, you are being silly and very immature. First there is not "care" there is foster care for kids taken out of their homes for serious abuse, ( often even minor issues they stay in home and parents are put on programs to correct issues)

    Next no you can't do anything at 15 except do what you are told by your parents.

    You are looking at this very poorly, you should be excited, Moving to a new country and learning a new culture, a new language will be most likely the best thing to ever happen to you in your entire life.

    It will make you a much more well rounded person, and I hope improve your education, since any young person 15 should know what foster care, and age of majority is.

    This will give you a new world view that will change the way you see everything in life.

    I have lived in many countries over the years, just two week ago, we moved to China where I am living right now.

    You should be thanking your parents for this chance,
