    Default I Need to Know if I Can Be Emancipated

    My question involves emancipation laws for the State of: north Carolina

    Im 15 turning 16 the beginning of May, i am currently living in North Carolina with my aunt since my mom abondended me at my house in Mississippi when she packed up all her stuff and she left for about two days then after she came back she picked me up and told me to have all of my stuff my aunt would be there the next day to get me. Though the day she left me she got in my face screaming she said she hated me and she never wanted to see me again. So befor this all happened alot else occured, i had been through a 5 year custody battle over me between my grandparents and my mom. So when we were in court it was because my mom had abondended me with my grandparents that time and when she called one day from memphis she said her and her boyfriend were comign to get me. I did not want to go back to her that time because her boyfriend at the time was on crack and cocaine.. So when he would do drugs and stuff in front of me he would spend all the money then we began living in a car and then my mom sent me to my grandparents in florida. so when she called that day i told the department of children and families i didnt want to be with her so that started the court case and as the case went on she broke up with the boyfriend and got things together and i decided to go back to her.... things only got bad again, we started moving around every couple monhes i have not had a steady home in the last 3 years or so, i have lived in about 8 different states different cities in every state. she is bipolar and is suppsed to be on meds and when she stopped taking them she got bad...
    so my question is with all that being said now that im with my aunt i dont want to leave and she wants to come get me in july and i dont want to go. can i emancipate myself with the help of my aunt though im not 16 yet?

    Ah yes. Still another child whose screen name self-identifies herself as "baby" but thinks she should be allowed out on her own with all the rights and privileges of an adult.

    Without, I guess, the responsibilities since she makes no mention of a job or an income with which to support herself. Maybe she's expecting the aunt to support her? In which case, that's not emancipation.
