What if a Friend of Mine Was of Legal Age and Was Put Into Rehab by His Parents?

Question by Abby: What if a friend of mine was of legal age and was put into rehab by his parents?

define ‘ of legal age’. is he 18 or over? there is no hospital that will admit an adult just cause mom and dad think he is behaving right.. that wouldn’t happen..
