Hi. Im 17 years old and have been living with my Aunt and Uncle for over a year now, and they have been financially supporting me, along with emotionally supporting me. My mom moved from California to North Dakota and agreed to let me stay in California, but never signed the guardianship over to my Aunt and Uncle, so theres nothing legally binding me here. Occasionally when my mom gets upset with me she threatens to call social workers and have me pinned as a runaway, so I will be sent out there with her. Everybody knows (schools, social workers in North Dakota,etc) that she has willingly let me stay here. What rights do I have to stay in California? Is there a specific amount of time living away from your parents, that my aunt and uncle legally become my guardians? Thanks for your help!!!
