Are women who are Jehovah's Witnesses allowed to move out their parent's house before marriage?

Anything in the bible that says a woman must stay with the parents until marriage?Are women who are Jehovah's Witnesses allowed to move out their parent's house before marriage?
A person is allowed to make an even more important decision at even a younger age.





You can become a baptized member of the spirit filled organization very young.





Why if a person can make that decision could not they make the decision to move out at 18?





From the nest of the parents to the loving arms and so forth of a husband does not seem like a woman has time to develop a sense of self and is sucked into the identity of a mate.





Of course the sense of financial security will be a strongly used mental and emotional tool. And of course if you have been discouraged to continue education so financial security can be relieved.





Makes a gal or guy quite dependant and under control.Are women who are Jehovah's Witnesses allowed to move out their parent's house before marriage?
The bible doesn't say that. It doesn't command that, they can move out, but not if they are under 18, because they are still in submission to your parents.


It is gods law to follow the governments law, so if you are over 18, then no, you don't have to stay home, if you are under 18, then yes, you could.


there are other valid reasons for leaving, such as expanding one鈥檚 service to God.





But anyway, the final answer is yes, you are allowed to leave home before marriage, but if it was me, who is only 13 years old, i would to move out, it would be rebelling against my parents.





I hope i helped
If it is in the Bible it was more of a custom of that day then a religious commandment.
Sure. Many live on their own. No big deal as long as they can afford it.
No.. We have women in the congregation who live alone. They have never been married.
sure if they are over 18. That is legally an adult. It isnt about relig.

My former jw wife: They don't like it but of course it's okay. If you're 18 there's nothing they can do about it.
