Emancipating Without Parental Consent

[STILLheRE]

I love both of my parents but the thing is im not allowed to do ANYTHING my father he does alot for me but i still cant be myself he doesnt exceptthe fact hat im gay neither does my mom but hings go deeper..i've done lots of things in my past but im sorry for what i did ya know? my dad is tired of me and my mom doesnt really want me she wants to do her own thing they wont let me work..i cant go anywhere. but recently my father found a cell phone he didnt know about and thats when all this really happened i've been openly gay for about 4 years now he hasnt accepted it neither has my mom shes never really there she says im always going to be a problem ya know? and what no one who i talk to seem to understand is if they (my parents) think im this big problem why not sign me over to someone who can take care of me finacialy and emotionally?

im 15 i can provide for myself but they wont let me get a job im very very independent and my parents wont sign me over to my cousin who is 30 years of age and will help provide for me a home and other things and WILL ACCEPT ME

then my god mother told me at 16 i can basicly leave and she told me to go and speak to a lady at my school and well i spoke with her and she said yea its possible all i have to do is go down to the court house and get the papers and get like references from pepole who know i can provide for myself alone without my parents and show good reason for emancipationWITHOUT MY PARENTS PETITION FOR IT the lady who gave me this info used to work for the dcf?

is she right and is there any solution for this problem

i really feel like im at an impass

No, she is not right. In Florida the ONLY way you can be emancipated is if your parent or legal guardian files the petition. Even then, it's not a guarantee. Emancipation is a privilege, not a right. Even if your parents do file the petition, a judge can (and based on what you describe, most likely would) turn it down.

Also, emanicipation does not mean that you go and live with your cousin. Emancipation means that you support yourself. While still going to school, without any work experience, how do you expect to earn enough to pay rent, electric and/or gas bill, phone bill, transportation, school fees, clothes, food, medical care, etc.?

i never said that if i was to get emancipated i would live with her
to pay all that YOU GET A JOB
I KNOW HOW LIFE WORKS
I KNOW I GOTTA DO WHAT I GOTTA DO
I'VE SHOWN THAT I CAN BE VERY INDEPENDENT ALL MY LIFE

Well, since you're not going to be emancipated without your parents filing the petition, it's a moot point, isn't it?
