My son's girlfriend is 17 and was kicked out of her house and is not welcome back, is she considered an adult as defined under MO Statue 211.021 or as a minor as defined in MO Statue 211.422? And can she seek emancipation from her mother or does she even have to since she was kicked out?

What does her situation have to do with juvenile court? If she commits a crime she will be charged as an adult, if that's what you're asking. She will reach the age of majority when she turns 18.
