Well your 16 years of age so legally you can move out, On the condition that you are in a safe environment. If your boyfriend does come over to your house, your parents may possibly sue him for trespass. But what i suggest is maybe get another relative to talk to your parents and convince them to perhaps meet and talk with your boyfriend, get to know him. I understand that they only want the best for you and are concerned about the age difference. Maybe speak to a social worker at school? 1  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?

Can you talk to your parents? Are you able to say to them... Look, I am thinking about moving out because you are making me feel this way... etc....? If they wont talk or listen to you, you are 16, your old enough to make your own decisions. Just remember, you are not 16... you are ONLY 16. Think about what you are doing honey, just because you want to be with him, it doesnt mean you should be with him. Think about these things first before you make any decisions...
1. Is he worth moving out of home for? Will he support you, financially, emotionally, in every way like your parents can?
2. Can you rely on him? Can you trust him? Can you live with him? Will you fight all the time over stupid things?
3. Can he live with you? I love my partner, but mannnnnn, he has some real annoying habbits... sometimes he drives me mental.
4. Are you moving in with him? Where are you moving? How can you contribute to your living there? Do you have a job or will he or they... expect other things to accommodate you? Living is not cheap you know?
5. Clothing, schooling all that stuff costs you know?

Only a couple of things to think about, dont make any sudden decisions kay, just think about it first, if you have it all worked out, then good luck. Just one bit of advise from me.... if he loves you the way we all long for our partners to love us.... then he will support your decision no matter what happens. If you just settled down a bit, listened to your parents, go to school and just talk to your partner on the phone or meet him at certain times, a year or so may pass by and if he is still there for you, your parents may be more accepting of him because of his patients. Respect comes with time and works in conjunction with his actions, it sounds like they have no respect for him, but he may not deserve it, so take some time out and stop fighting against the grain, its much easier to go with the flow... you know?
