I read every word of your message. Do you think that will make the laws any different?

I sleep with myself just fine. I neither make the laws nor vote on their passage, and whether I agree with your position or not will not have the slightest effect of what the laws say. The laws say that a minor in Ohio cannot be emancipated outside of legal marriage or enlistment in the active armed forces, and that you cannot move out without parental permission until you are 18. All the oh-you-poor-babies in the world will not change that.
