    There's an extensive guide to emancipation law on the Maryland People's Law Library website.

    Asking for advice
    I am currently living with my boyfriend 6 months and will be 17 on July 20. 2 days ago I was living with my Aunt And Uncle whom have legal gaurdianship over me. I currently diagnosed with epilepsy and the neurosurgeon said that they were caused by worry and severe anxiety so this means that my seizures are my bodys way of saying that to much is going on or I'm having a stress overload. My Aunt and Uncle are people that are wealthy and they took me in when I was 5,i know my mother and talk to her often, but I will admit that i do resent her to an extent for leaving me and my eldest brother to stay with someone else ,to have 3 more kids (all boys).Out of these 4 boys (including my eldest brother) I am the only girl and the middle child ,i talked to my "mother"one week before I decided that emancipation was the best thing for me all she had to say was that she had wished that her last child was a girl and that she wished she had a little girl of her own,keep in mind I am the only girl which makes me in away the baby and the little girl of hers that she was looking for.That in itself has put a large amount of stress on me since I was 5 and till this day it will until I can be freed from the fact that I wasn't good enough to keep and her new children were,with that said I want you to know that in my Aunt and Uncle's house they are very difficult at times my brother is 22 and still lives at home and that frustrates my Aunt very much my Aunt had 2 kids of her own and they are all grown up with children of there own my Aunt is very upset at the Fact that she can not see her eldest grandaughter and she feels that its my fault. My Aunt and Uncle fight alot and that can take alot out of a persons health (particularly mine) I really think that emancipation is the best thing for me so that me and my boyfrind can continue on with our engagement and so that I can start to live a normal life. What do you guys think?

    Emancipation laws vary by state. If your question is about Maryland, try the link provided above. If not, consider starting a new thread in which you identify the state in which you live.
