    Default Re: Would My Case Be Strong Enough

    In order to qualify for emancipation you need to have already moved out of the house with either the direct or implicit permission of your parent(s), be paying or at least have the means to pay 100% of what it takes to support yourself (that means market-rate rent, utilities, food, clothing, health care, insurance, transportation, staples, school fees and supplies, etc. etc.; it does not mean paying a token to live in someone else's extra bedroom and paying your car insurance), and getting better than average grades.

    Since you have neither moved out nor obtained permission to move out, you fail on eligibility right there.

    It also does not mean needing getting the $300 a month your mother gives your father for your support.

    It does not matter if you pay for your phone or other things or your father does. If he wants to take them away from you, he can. When will you be 18? You can move out then. You need to find another job when you turn 18 and move out. I don't think working with your father will be a good idea after you move out.
