Can my parents stop me from going out at 16?

Can a 30 year old date a 16 year old UK?
The age of consent in the UK is 16. This means that it’s against the law for someone to have sex with someone under the age of 16. It wouldn’t be illegal for someone who’s 16 to have a relationship with someone who is 30 – unless that person is their teacher or in a position of authority.

Can you move out at 14 without parental consent?
When you’re under 16, your parents or carers have a responsibility to keep you safe. That means that you can’t decide to move out and your parents can’t ask you to leave. If you leave home without your parents’ or carers’ permission, the police have the right to take you home if it’s safe to.
