I believe legally if you are a minor you can do something like what you are asking about. That is, remove any legal power your parents may have over you. If neither of your parents love you that might be a good idea. No one owes there parents anything if their parents don't love them. Of course parents who love their children already know their children don't owe them anything.

1 Reason why this is a bad question is because if a child is reading this then he might get the idea of divorcing over a minor incident like he isn't allowed to go to a sleepover!

In answer to the response by 'repentance', whether your parents brought you into the world or not has nothing to do with it. I had no contact with my father for 5 years after he left the family when me and my sisters where very young. I fought for contact for a long time and eventually regained a 'relationship' with my father even though he had moved to america without telling us. After years of let downs broken promises and months with no contact I have finally decided to cut all ties with him after an attempted suicide due to the depression he caused me. If you have a reason like this then I think it is your right to divorce them and hope to god that it's possible!

I would like to know where you go about finding this out. I live in MA and I'm thinking that my nephew who is 17 should divorce his mother. His parents never married and only the mother has custody of him. His father is married with 2 little girls and can't take him in (he's my nephew). The only person who can help him get away from her is me. She won't allow any family members to see him. From what his grandmother says, she feeds him lies. He is currently in a group home and will be ok their, so I need to know what he can do so he can get away from her.

Yes I believe that a grown adult living with their parents should have that right, because if the adult child isn't happy with whats been going on at home and  the adult child has some where to go, then that adult child whether the adult child is mentally challenged or not ,  shouldn't judge and if the mentally challenged understands whats going on in the world well enough  then if they are no longer happy  where they are staying now and want to leave , like move in with friends  ,grandparents aunt and uncle they need to make some sort of game plan, because we can not walk in other 's shoes and so we do not know how the other one is feeling, I was born mentally challenged  I can say though that I've come along way from being real bad off but now  I have improved and now all I ask for from  is to respect me and the decisions that I make pertaining to my own life., I have never gotten in  trouble with the law  because I know that once they take you in  they  get a mug shot of you and they finger print you. And  sadly still all of those will stay on your record forever. Its not worth it. Some places hardly if ever hire any one who has a police record., I for one do want to divorce my step dad.

I never heard such a law however in this day and time anything could possibly be. I would said however in my opinion, No! you shouldn't even have in your hear to go that route with your own parents. Your parents are the ones who brought you into this world or even if you are adopted they cared enough to want to love you. No matter how bad things are between you and your parents they will still always be your parents. You need to seriously pray for your parents and yourself to get the hurt, anger, unforgiveness, etc. out your heart so that everyone can be peaceable together.

Obviously you are a very fortunate person to never have it get to that point. My husband and I are considering divorcing his mom who is mentally ill. I admit it is not ideal, but you need to understand that there are circumstances when it is necessary as an adult. My husband and I have three children to protect and we are finding it necessary to protect them.
