    Exclamation Emancipation Needed in Florida

    I'm 15 years old and I live in Miami Florida. I am looking towards emancipation as an alternative to staying here, because it has become more than I can bear. My mother physically, emotionally, and mentally abuses me. Its not that I got pregnant, or that I'm a little rich kid thats having a cow because I didnt get the right color Ferrari I wanted for my birthday. Its not that at all. The abuse is to the point where I'm depressed constantly, I always have headaches, I never want to eat, and I am withdrawing from my friends. I see that I am doing it, but I just have no desire to be around people anymore. My mom is very mean to my boyfriend of 9 months, who literally does anything and everything he can for me, who has NEVER said a cross word to me EVER, and is just the perfect person. (I'm not trying to be the doting oh-my-man-is-perfect kinda girl, but he is just the complete and utter gentleman.) But my mom is cruel to me and now him, calling us names and saying cruel things. I want to get out, so please, if there is something else that I can do can someone let me know, because I want to help these children get out of here and get help as well as myself... they dont deserve this either. (My boyfriends mom is a lawyer, and shes willing to help me anyway I ask, but I dont know what to ask for her help with) So if there is anything I can do without having to have her sign the emancipation papers please let me know someone.
    Thank You,
    Concrete Angel

    Default Re: Emancipation NEEDED... help?

    There isn't. First of all, a 15 year old cannot be emancipated in any state except California, and only rarely there. Secondly, in your state, the ONLY way a minor can be emancipated is if the parent submits the petition.
