My question involves emancipation laws for the State of: Pennsylvania.
My sister is 16 and might be pregnant. We are waiting to find out if she is and have not yet told our mother. Our mother is very controlling and has said plenty of times before that if either of us were to get pregnant before the age of 18 she would be the one raising the child, not us. She is very manipulative and at times down right mean. My sister does not want to live with my mother is she is pregnant and wants to move in with me. I am 19 and i have my own place and a job. I am a very responsible person. I would feel more comfortable if my sister was staying with me rather than our mother. My mother has a long history of having her children taken away from her. My sister's father has a history of drug abuse and was discharged from the army because he was border line psychotic and she does not wish to live with him either. I just want what is best for my sister. Is there any legal advice that I could be given? Is there any way we can get her emancipated so she can live with me?![]()
