Do I Qualify to Get Emancipated

Even assuming you legally could be emancipated ... this process can take a year to progress to completion. And it would be moot at that point in time.

If the trouble you got into involved a police officer, even the very very small chance to had of emancipation vanished to nothing.

Oh no I just got caught doing something I wasn't supposed to. They said I never listen and they want to give up but legally. Like someone told me earlier a parent can't just decide not to be a parent anymore (unless they like turn me over to a group home or something to that effect like adoption or a shelter) but I'm just curious as to what they mean by "sign the paperwork to emancipate me and I can go on my own"? They think they're lawyers lol but as I said I'm just curious. ..and maybe looking to prove them wrong for once

Okay just an update I got into some trouble and my mom and stepdad said that "they cant handle me anymore and if I could get my real dad to consent to the emancipation paperwork (sign it) they'll sign it too and I can go by myself and they won't help me out financially or anything." this would never happen believe me my real dad is a control freak but does what they're saying make any sense to anyone like I've heard of this happening and being a ward of the state or taken to a shelter or being adopted but what are they talking about? It would still have to go to court right? I'm just curious I gave up on it anyway it would take too long I'd be 18 by the time everything got finalized anyway.

Do these people understand that there IS NO PAPERWORK of the nature that they're looking for?

Did you READ the posts?

I'm just trying to prove them wrong for once they bug me out because they think they know everything. Thank you (:< merry Christmas!

I think I understand the majority of your friction with your parents... and I say that as the step father of a wonderful teen ager.

You want to score points... and that is a sign of immaturity. You are not following the rules. That is a sign of immaturity.

Don't bother packing.

Co-sign, please. ;)

Actually as I said before they think they're lawyers because they go to court a lot (and they never win) they try to argue that they're always right even if the facts don't back up what they say. When I try show them that what they're saying isn't true or possible or right, they flip and make up something dumb to quash my proof. I like to prove my case because then I feel better about it but say I look it up and prove them right, I admit it to them. This is one of those cases where they're wrong. I'm not going to go immediately throw this in their face. Just if the subject happens to come up again.

Hon, I don't think you're getting it.

But have a nice holiday season, anyway.
