What happens if you get kicked out of your house before 18?

I think it depends where you are in the world to fully respond to this. For me, I was kicked out by my ex and my parents wouldnt let me move back. I went to my local council and was placed in a B&B before being put into a homeless unit for women. Probably the most horrific experience being the eldest at 19 and didnt participate in drugs. After a few months/years, we were supposed to be placed into permanent homes, as in local housing association or council housing. One girl, I think she was 15/16, fell pregnant and got a house quicker. Another who was 16 was causing so many issues with drugs, emergency services, parties, noise she got a house offer relatively fast too. The last girl, who was 18, came from a really sheltered background and left quite quickly I ended up moving out and getting a private rental with all the chaos that place brought. Moreso because I was drug tested at work and there was often stuff all over the kitchen, which we shared. I couldnt take the risk and the council refused to do anything. The girl that had the baby is a fantastic mother and stopped all her drugs and partying. The wee boy was gorgeous. The one with the massive drug problem found Christ and Im led to believe she discovered her inner happiness and moved back to England to be with her family.
