i won't be 18 until this coming august, but i need to get an abortion within the next week or two at the most. my fiance and i live alone and both my parents are pro-life, so asking either of them to sign for it is not an option. i am not on good terms with either of them as they are in the middle of a messy divorce and are trying to make me choose sides, which i refuse to do. the state law requires a woman to either be of legal age or be emancipated in order to get an abortion without parental consent. i am not familiar with emancipation procedure and i would like to know exactly what i have to do to get emancipated. my father has agreed to sign any papers necessary and/or appear in court with me to do this. i need to know immediately.
