Can my parents call the cops?

Question

I want to go on a walk outside. I've been cooped up inside for months. I only get about an hour of being outside a day! I am still a minor. I am past driving age, though, but can't drive yet. Is it illegal to leave the house for an hour and then come back?

Technically, no. But as a minor, you need to make your parents aware of where you will be. They have legal right to tell you no, as well as you don't want them starting to call out a missing persons report.

Answer 2

yes just go for a walk! but tell your parent they might worry or tell them your interested for just going for a short walk now and then!
but no, they can't areest you, and they can't say your a missing person for you only being gone an hour. But if they think it's you running away then social services might take you away or put it on your record.

Answer 3

No.. It's not. Just tell them you're going out. If they don't allow it YOU should call the cops. Or some children help. Super nanny or something.

Answer 4

illegal. you'll be marked as a blacklisted fugitive and be shot on site. sucks, huh?

Answer 5

If you are under 18, then yes. You would most likely just be brought back home.

Answer 6

They could have you arrested as a runaway, yes.

Answer 7

Jesus christ just tell your parents you want to go for a walk. What the **** is wrong with you?
