Hi, my name is Theresa Olsson and I am 17 years old. I currently live with my Grandparents in Colorado. I used to live in Ohio. Thats where I grew up. My mom and I never get along! She has gave consent for me to live here with my grandparents. She doesnt take care of me. I have been on my own since I was 8. I don't like it out here in Colorado. My grandparents are very poor. We only have one source of income! I live in a one bedroom trailor with 6 other ppl. This is crazy. I am not happy here. I want to get emancipated so i can move back to ohio. I had a job till i moved out here and i was in school until i moved out here! Now i havent been in school or had a job for almost or more than 2 months. I cant do anything out here because in the part of colorado i live with is soo dangerous i am not even aloud to go outside. The only thing i am aloud to do is be inside and its driving me crazy. I mean dont get me wrong i love my family this just isnt the life i want for myself. I know if i was on my own i would have a better life. I am determind i can do this. I want this! My life is going down the drain because my mom wouldnt let me live with a friend. I know if i was still in Ohio i would have a job and i could support myself finacially. I would also being going to school i want something for my life. I cant do that out here where i am not happy. How would i come to get myself emancipated so i can live with my boyfriend in ohio...??
