    Default Can I Be Emancipated

    My question involves emancipation laws for the State of: Emancipation.

    I am 13 years old and currently live with both of my biological parents. My goal is to be emancipated from them at the quickest time. I was wondering what the New Jersey laws were about emancipation. The reason for my interest in becoming emancipated are purely the fact of my parents' unsuitable raising environment. The people i have to live with are taking me to the point of deep depression, insomnia,and cutting. I wanted to know if under the conditions, if there was any way for me to be emancipated. Thank you.

    Not one single chance.

    There isn't a state in the entire country which will emancipate a 13 year old.

    Even if there was, the fact that you are self-mutilating rules out ANY chance whatsoever.

    If you are depressed or in a dangerous environment, contact your school counselors, or call child protective services.

    And New Jersey does not have any statutes to allow for the emancipation of a minor, regardless of their age.

    So it's no, across the board.
