What legal protection is available against family relationship harassm

At 18 years and 4 months, you are an adult and generally have the legal right to make your own personal and relationship decisions. Your mother cannot lawfully confine, threaten, assault or forcibly control you merely because she disagrees with your relationship. Preserve evidence of threats or violence. If there is immediate danger, seek help from the police or an appropriate legal authority and consult a lawyer regarding available protection.
