    First, you make no mention of your state, so we can't even tell you if emancipation is available in your state.

    Second, even if it is available in your state, you make no mention of how long you have been supporting yourself 100%. If you're not already doing that, you're not a candidate for emancipation.

    Third, she can threaten you with the military all she wants. She's blowing smoke - you can't be forced to join the military, period.

    You don't qualify for emancipation - at all.

    Honestly, you do not even have a grasp of the English language. Having the ability to provide food, clothing, shelter and medical for yourself, in addition to going to school full time, is not going to happen for you.

    Because you do not have a job or a means of supporting yourself or a history of doing so. The law WILL NOT emancipate you on the basis of what you say you're going to do and it will not emancipate you so that you can go live with someone else who will support you instead. Unless you have the means RIGHT NOW to pay EVERY PENNY of your own support, you do not qualify for emancipation.

    Good lord, child, write in English. You get more than 140 characters here.

    You don't qualify because you don't have a full time job, therefore you are not capable of supporting yourself 100%, and you have no track record of being able to do so.

    Additionally, you're not old enough. You can't file a petition for emancipation in the state of Arkansas until you're 17.
