Re: Can I Get Emancipated
How much money are you making at your full-time job? What are your grades like? How long have you been supporting yourself 100%?
Re: Can I Get Emancipated
And..uh...really? Is there any reason you can't fix dinner for yourself?
Re: Can I Get Emancipated
Well IF there were food in the house, i'd be capable of doing that. & because my mom didnt take care of me well i supported myself up until i moved here. & i'm making straight a's. If you dont have anything HELPFUL to say then why say it at all.
Re: Can I Get Emancipated
What kind of job did you have that paid enough to TOTALLY support yourself at 16? That means fair market value of rent, utilities, transportation, medical and car insurance, food, phone, internet, staples, etc.?
Re: Can I Get Emancipated
I'm going to be as gentle as I can here, so please bear with me.
If there was literally no food in the house, you would have been smart enough - or your sister would have been - to contact CPS/equivalent or speak to a school counselor or other mandated reporter to make a report, right? Because you are smart enough to understand that your guardian has the minimal responsibility of providing food, yes?
But that aside, what kind of job do you have where you're able to show the court that you can provide market rent, utilities, clothing, food, health insurance, transportation....everything?
(Did you read ANY other emancipation threads here?)
Edit: Hey Patty :) we cross-posted...nice to see you :D
Re: Can I Get Emancipated
I'd be moving where that would be taken care of, no bills or expenses for me to pay.
The reason i'm not contacting anyone is because i dont want anyone in trouble, i jus want out of here.
PLEASE, i just want advice as to if i can get emancipated & some law stating i can. I dont need your judgements or criticism. Thanks.

WHAT KIND OF JOB DO YOU HAVE WHERE YOU CAN FULLY SUPPORT YOURSELF?
Or, what other funding do you have?
I don't mean moving in with a friend, or a relative, or a boyfriend or girlfriend. I mean how can you show the court that YOU can support yourself?
And really - if you think we're tough (and trust me hon, we're not - by any means), you've got no chance in front of a judge.
Re: Can I Get Emancipated
No one said yall were being "tough". Yall were asking so i was answering. Thought this was supposed to be helpful ? Guess i was wrong.
Re: Can I Get Emancipated
Why won't you answer my question?
