No.

Nope. No one can force you to do anything after you are an adult. ~+~
-
Not unless she has become your legal guardian (determined by a judge).
-
Legally no. Unfortunately, emotionally parents often can still do that. Happened to me - until I left forcibly and was disowned for it. We've since made up, but it can be a hard transition for everyone involved.
-
If you're crazy she can have you committed maybe, with testimony of a shrink. I think you have to be very really crazy for them to do that. I mean walking around town with a tin-foil hat shouting "space monkeys are attacking!@" crazy. Otherwise I think she can't.
-
In some states she can until you're 19
-
No she can't. How long have you got left before you are legally an adult?
-
Not legally. She can guilt you into it, or blackmail you into it, but once you turn 18 and can support yourself as an adult, your parents really have no say on what goes on- except if you're dieing and it comes down to someone making a decision about your life. That's pretty much it.
-
As far as I'm concerned your mommy can do whatever she wants. She put you in this world and she could just as quickly take you out. Best listen to your mother, Son!
-
What kind of force would be involved? If she chains you to the dungeon, or other wise physically restrains you, you can take your case to court. If there is no physical restraint, how would this forcing take place? Can you not walk out the door?
-
The only reason, I can think of that she could, would be if your were considered an Vunerable adult, and that would have been decided by a judge.
-
In theory she can't do that unless it is ruled by a judge. Nonetheless, parents can do many things when they want their children to stay with them. :P
-
No. You have the legal right to live your own independent life when you turn 18 years old.
-
Legally she cannot unless a judge rules you dependent and makes her your guardian again. An example of such a situation would be in the case of an individual who hasn't developed mentally to the point where they are capable of living on their own, ie. they may have the mental capacity of a 12 year old, but be legally an adult.
-
Make the wise choice. If you leave, there is no guarantee return. Remember, the bridges that are burned after you cross were not necessarily set fire by you.
-
HELL NO! but If she tries to.. don't feel guilty do what u gotta do. what can make u happy.
-
no, she cant really force u to live any where really, if ur over at the age of making ur own choices which probably is 14+ if i was to run off and live with my dad my mum cud phone social services all she likes but all they will do is check tht im living some here safe not make me live with her. o after ur a leagle adult u can do anything. unless ur mum is a control freak like mine ad says if u eave here u leave with nothing,but u can phone social services or the police to get ur stuff,
-
No.
-
No b-cuz ur an adult
-
Well in legal terms no, you are 18; it is your life not hers. However, if you mother is a 4'5'' woman with loaded guns all over the house; I would think about moving to a new state and or county.
-
No. You will be an adult and can make your own decisions.
-
No she can not force you to live with her. Like the other person said she can have you committed but thats only if you pose a threat to yourself or others... usually they can only hold you up to 72 hours without your permission. They can not leaggally detain you after that unless you have broken the law.
-
No she cant!!
-
chad ur a ding dong
-
Nope, and in some states you can legally leave at 17.. don't have to wait until 18.
-
If she is big and strong yes...
-
yes and no., yes, if you have a disability, or a mental problem and no, if your state of mental health is normal/healthy, your healthy, you can support yourself financially and mature enough. but you need to ask yourself "why is she doing this?" please, sit down and have a talk with her without a shouting match. be logical. good luck.
-
No. Sounds like something my Mum would try and do to me. She tries to control me in every other way. I've asked legal questions about my mother on here as well. Unless she can emotionally black mail you into staying bribe you etc, or like what someone earlier said if she can really prove that you're crazy and need care then maybe she can force you to live with her but still you could still to go to a mental institution instead. If your Mum is anything like mine I recommend just getting away from her and not letting her know where you live which is what I'm trying to do. Good luck!
-
No, once you hit 18 years old, you're out of her control. Unless the court rules you as unfit to live on your own and dependant, then maybe she can, or unless you're declared mentally unstable and needing constant supervision.
-
if there is a mental disability she can
-
No. If you are a legal adult of sound mind, she cannot force you to do anything.
-
No once you are of legal age she cant make you do anything
-
Generally, no. Once you are of legal age, you are free to live with whomever you want or no one. There would be very limited circumstances in which your mother could force you to live with her -- all would require a court order.
-
0 HELL TO THE NAWW..GIRL U LEGAL U CAN DO WHATEVER U WANT! YOUR A LEGAL ADULT
-
if your a LEGAL adult..then no...go do whatever you want...be free lil birdie
-
That's a scary thought. As long as you are mentally healthy, no.
-
I don't know the answer to the question but if thats happening to you that is SO HILARIOUS!
-
Only with guilt.
-
not unless your a nutjob or in need of serious medical treatment and they prove its in your best intrest to stay, then maybe.
-
No, if you are not deemed Mental handicap, You can leave, at the magic age of 18, some states at 17
-
depends if she is ill or something but no when you a re a legal adult your mom or dad cannot force you to live with him or her
-
NO!!! as long as your in ok meantal health and are no harm to yourself or anyone else. even then it would have to go to court and the judge might put you in a loony bin .......
-
If you are like mentally retarded (and I mean something like Sarapalsy(sp?)) then you could be forced for your own safety. But again you would essentially have to be ordered by a judge to do so after a medical assessment.
-
I still love to stay with my mother. She is such a great person with so much love. I enjoy her presence..
-
Yes she can, at least untill she gets caught.
-
No she cant. Once you are a legal adult your mother cant make you do anything
